i have 2 black widows, they are common round here, if you remove the eggs espect the female to attack you.
also, do not be surprised if the female wastes away and refuses food.
i find that letting them keep the sac promotes vigor and appitite bear in mind that the female will infact carry the eggsac back to a safer location if it is moved.
this means you can remove it, kill the eggs (a few secs in microwave or in a hyperbolic vacuum) then return the sac, the mother will continue to guard them for the remainder of her 5 year lifespan.
bear in mind that hatchling latrodectus are quite harmless, and males are always harmless.
My mama widow is protecting a dead batch now only because it got fungus from too much humidity.
my other widow had her eggs removed, and is slowly starving.

Scorpion would be a good choice, methinks.
They're just as cool as spiders, but more awe-inspiring and less panic-inspiring.

Man, if you have any enemies or people you fucking hate. Lure your spider away from the sacks with a cricket or whatever, put the sacks in a jar, place it near your enemies houseand put the sacks on some wood or something...

thats alot of spidys if they did hatch, i suggest taking care of em, thats a good number of spiders to start a black widow army, training will be rough, but i think its worth it, especially if they think of you as a superior

my suggestion would be to burn the egg sacs.
im not to sure if you want to be keeping the spider either.
but if you can avoid little spiderlings you should be fine keeping it in the terrarium

black widdows are not something to be feared, they are really a laid back spider.. i saw some discovery channel thing about this family that kept black widdows, they were handling them like a freakin pet, it was pretty sick seeing an 9 yr old just having a black widdow crawlikng on his hand.
but yea, take the egg sack and get rid of it, somehow. burning it in a hot fire would make it quick and painless..
but yea, if you feel comfotable keeping a black widdow as a pet, it's your choice. i'm semi-a spider phobe, but not nearly as bad as a lot of people.

put the eggs in a petri dish and fertilize them with your own semen!
