Now, I'm not all that hip on a lot of chemicals in the yard, but I'm about ready to put a bubble over the house and the yard and bomb the whole place with insecticide.
On a lighter note, I finally finished bushwhacking out the forsythia-gone-wild at the corner of the garage, and the neighbor kindly used the scoop on his tractor to dig the huge stump out. Here's a shot of the bush yet to be taken to the burn pile and the nice spot left after Larry dug the stump out. Thank you, Larry! Can you believe the amount of bush from what started out as one forsythia? I have a lovely lilac bush to put in its place.

The black widows at the storage facility I managed were huge. Their "butts" were from a quarter-coin-sized on up. The only thing that works- freeze with a spray of shellac hairspray, (it is temporary), smash with a brick. Repeat. I went in waving a stick around like a demented fairy to be sure I did not walk into any webbing. They drop quickly if you walk into the webs. Eek! After one unit with over 25 of those ugly beasts, it gets tiring. I found no pie-zon that knocked them dead. Good job on the rampaging flowerss!
