So, since moving to sunny Southern California, I have been faced with a new and unsettling resident in the tortoises' outdoor enclosures. We pulled through last summer alright, but now that it's time to get the tortoises back outside, the black widows are back in force!
I know, they present little risk to the torts, nor to me, if I watch my step. Normally I'll give spiders a pass... But I have no such sympathy for black widows.
So... Does anyone have any suggestions on how to kill/repel these evil things, without presenting a health risk to the tortoises?? Bonus points if it will also deter ants!
Any suggestions greatly appreciated... Thank you!!
