...what happens to a bird if a bird eats one?
We have a ton of black widow spiders around here. The other night, my husband and I went outside and sprayed 40 of them, just on the sides of the house alone. I see them during the day if I upturn something, or a random one here and there.
Today, I saw a bird eat a big one in our eaves. Will the poison of the spider affect the bird? Or does the stomach acids (if there are any in birds, I have no idea) counteract that? Just curious.
