Best Answer

The three species of widow spider (Western Black, Southern Black and the Brown Widow) are all established here in Hawaii. They are not indigenous, having found their way here most times in freight or fruit coming from California.

They are normally shy Spiders and will only bite if cornered and threatened - or if you go after the egg sac. Males tend to not bite as their mandibles are very small - it is the female of the species that should be watched out for.
