Thanks for the info. I sat on that bench and watched my grandkids play just last week!! We also found some egg sacs under our patio chairs. I heard of one woman on the isalnd who put here hand into her garden glove and got bitten and had to go to the hospital.

I also found egg sacks on some garden furniture and saw some webs between some cactus!

I just came across your post. One of our Newfoundland dogs was bitten by something this past summer and his rear leg was severely swollen. After close to $2,000 in vet bills and antibiotics, he recovered, but it is still a mystery as to what bit him. At first, the vet thought it was a snake bite. Since he was not in any areas where there were snakes, I believe it must have been a bad spider bite.
