In spite of this feel that I can
not live in this house another day

My dear woman. you have a per-

Spread Of the black widow spider
may soon be controlled by the labo-
ratory propagation Of rare and
tiny parasitic fly that preys on the
egg sac of the spider, writes George
Elwood jerks in Nature Magazine.
The fly, known to science as Gau-
rax araneae, was discovered in Los
Angeles about 40 years ago, but APP
parently was forgotten until jerks
rediscovered it in the SPIDERS egg
sacs. Nature has checks on the
undue increase of many creatures
in the form of parasites, and it is
this minute fly that controls the
black widow. Probably assisted by
settlement. however, the black wild
ow has been increasing in numbers
despite the activities of Gaurax.
The spider spins her sac about
the eggs she deposits and remains
on guard throughout the incubation
period. but it sometimes happens
the parasite evades her watchful
eyes and succeeds in laying its own
eggs on the surface Of the sac.
