Redback Spider Flamethrower Roundup March 2019 Pt1 EDUCATIONAL VIDEO

  • It's time to look for the deadly Redback spiders that are lurking around my home. This is a delayed February clear out because of the very hot Summer we have experienced in Australia. I start in the front yard and find multiple spider nests. I did do a study of one nest using the Arlo security camera system. It revealed to me how these spiders set up their messy webs. But my spider control process is all about removal of nesting areas before the spider egg sac's have a chance to open. I know Redback Spiders need roughly 6 weeks to develop their spiderlings, this timing can vary depending on the weather. Using a flamethrower / weed dragon I remove the spiders and nest in an instant. This process uses no chemical insecticides so it's environmentally friendly. It's also a very fast method of pest control. I did see a mystery Wasp hanging out in the Redback spider zone. I just hope it's something that hunts down Redback spiders and not a beetle that's imitating a Wasp. The weather started to get bad and I only do part of the backyard. There will be a part 2 where an amazing spider discovery is made. My method of controlling Redback spiders has greatly reduced the numbers of these deadly pests around my home. But my battle will be never ending because these spiders are so effective at turning our urban environments into their spider homes.
    The Redback spider (Latrodectus hasseltii) is a species of venomous spider indigenous to Australia. It is a member of the cosmopolitan genus Latrodectus, the widow spiders. The adult female is easily recognised by her spherical black body with a prominent red stripe on the upper side of her abdomen and an hourglass-shaped red/orange streak on the underside. Females have a body length of about 10 millimetres (0.4 in), while the male is much smaller, being only 3-4 mm (0.12-0.16 in) long. Mainly nocturnal, the female Redback lives in an untidy web in a warm sheltered location, commonly near or inside human residences. It preys on insects, spiders and small vertebrates that become ensnared in its web. It kills its prey by injecting a complex venom through its two fangs when it bites, before wrapping them in silk and sucking out the liquefied insides. Male spiders and spiderlings often live on the periphery of the female spiders' web and steal leftovers. Other species of spider and parasitoid wasps prey on this species. The Redback is one of few arachnids which usually display sexual cannibalism while mating. The sperm is then stored in the spermathecae, organs of the female reproductive tract, and can be used up to two years later to fertilise several clutches of eggs. Each clutch averages 250 eggs and is housed in a round white silken egg sac. The Redback spider has a widespread distribution in Australia, and inadvertent introductions have led to established colonies in New Zealand, Japan, and in greenhouses in Belgium.
    The redback is one of the few spider species that can be seriously harmful to humans, and its preferred habitat has led it to being responsible for the large majority of serious spider bites in Australia.

    My dad and I love your videos, that’s saying something with him being from New Zealand, he’s a 60 year old tradesman and comes across a fair share of black widows here on the central coast in California during work. Through watching your educational videos he only recently noticed how close he was actually coming into contact with the deadly spiders. He noticed the web patterns and saved himself today thanks to your funny and entertaining videos. Please keep doing what you’ve been doing. It’s helpful and nice to see someone with similar interests. THANK YOU, from us both. PS the name of your last red back had both of us cracking up, “ bindi” hahaha

And I Do Think That Mummy Should Ditch The Idea Of Having Tubs As The Garden-bed, And Get A Proper One.

    what a shame that monster red back between the tubs had to get a good night sister 😢 What a beauty she was! You should have thrown her in with Bindi since she was such a special find. Looks like the red back population in your garden has gone down considerably since you started trying to get it under control.
    I think I know the magical spider keeping the red backs away, the ones you called false widows, right ? or did you call it a cement spider, I'm getting confused, too many names.

    It's very unfortunate that red backs are so deadly and clash with people in urban areas so much because having watched Leo's channel they really are quite amazing creatures. I'm glad we don't have such problems here in the UK. It's sad that people have to kill these spiders to protect their families from bites but of course it's scary to think the dangers you would be in if you didn't try to control the species.

      And it's not the spiders fault I think it's important to make that clear it's just a really unfortunate conflict of interest.
      It's good that you have a certain respect and admiration for them as they are remarkable killing machines.
