Honestly I'm surprised I didn't think they existed in this wet climate.
Where I grew up in Cali black widows were everywhere. You just assumed that every dark spot outdoors or in a garage had one until proven otherwise. Kill them and a new one shows up next week. They never came in the house and I never did meet anyone who actually got bit by one despite how ubiquitous they were.
This is my exact thoughts/upbringing.
IF you saw a black widow spider, it most likely immigrated from elsewhere. BUT they are around WA state.
It's a sanctuary state, most likely undocumented. Pay them under the table to take care of other bugs on your property. Black spider lives matter.
