At Hilton we have many spiders, as you know. Many people want to know about the dangerous ones, and the Black Widow is one of these. It has a close relative, the Brown Widow, which is not nearly as dangerous, and is quite common, unlike it's Black relative. Check the attached pictures to see if you have encountered them.
