When Stuart Fretwell discovered what looked like Britain's most venomous spider, the noble false widow, in the family's kitchen he knew that a more military approach was called for. Donning a re-enactment society medieval helmet and goggles, Stuart reached for his 'suckiest ' vacuum cleaner went into battle against the biting, eight-legged fright-fest that was hanging in his kitchen! Stuart says that, at first, the spider didn't appear in the dust-canister . . but with a little more sucking it plopped into view and was nervously disposed of. " I think it must've had its hairy legs braced against the sides of the vacuum's hose, like Tom Cruise in an action movie! ", says Stuart with a wry grin. Stuart admits to finding the spider's markings to be quite beautiful when he viewed the photos on his laptop. " They look as if they have been painted by a skilled artist ", he says admiringly.

It is mainly found in the southern counties at present but with global warming it is sure to spread further north in the future. It is one of the world's most invasive species of spider
