So I'm cleaning out my garage and a little black spider with a red hour glass on its abdomen says hello to me (from a distance). It had a good number of egg sacks around (white blobs).

I killed the ones I could....question is how do I kill any others and how do I keep them from going in my garage. Is there some "Black Widow - Be Gone"?. My house is less than 6 months old...

Ordinary spider spray should work just fine.

The spiders probably aren't black widows -- there are 'false widows' that adopt a similar coloration. I'd be careful with them just in case, but don't worry overmuch.

Spray the eggs with some form of rubbing alcohol or chemical that won't give off a bunch of noxious fumes. Since it's in yer house you wanna be able to breathe. General insecticides should do the trick look for anything in a hardware store with malathion or DDT.
Spray it around the house in areas like corners or small spaces with the potential for condensation and humidity as they will generally thrive in these areas.

Slowly besides the undeniable fact that black all and distinctive seems catching up and overcoming those historic pitfalls. Examples.

how ironic--i have a black widow living in my mailbox! i haven't killed her yet, because well, she's all the way in the back and i don't want to stick my hand that far...i figure when the mail carrier is dead, then i will probably do something about it. lol.
you should probably get some professional service for this, because you won't be able to find all of the hidden black widows in your house, and that can be quite scary! for the ones that are still alive, i would use gasoline..that works on everything. good luck. :-)

" Tips from eHow Users:
Diatomaceous Earth and Electronic Pest Control Units by Loree Nelson
Use diatomaceous earth, (which is a natural product, not a pesticide) around the perimeter of your house. It is a very fine dust, so wear a dust mask. I use it once or twice a year. Insects and spiders walk through it and die, because it "cuts" their outer surface and kills them. I also use the Black and Decker electronic pest control units inside the house. Both of these together will vastly decrease your pests of all types! "

I like the raid foggers. We have huge spiders in our house in the spring. we bomb the house every spring and we dont get any scary visiters for about 3 months. just make sure you are no home for like 8 hours.

I know it seems expensive, but call a pro exterminator. The $ will be well spent compared to a hospital bill.
