Huh...I didn't know that...the lil S.O.B.s on my porch must be really well fed - the webs are everywhere :-D

Thanks

I'm pretty sure it's generally 1 spider per web, and I thought blackwidows (assuming they are still alive) take down the webs when done. So presumably you have quite a few spiders.

In any case here's a discussion of said paper.
