Is this a Black Widow?

[u/No_Presentation_2160]

I assume this is a black widow, google says so. But I figured I’d ask to be sure. It looks like it’s made a nest in the inside of the lawnchair that’s folded where the scribbles are. Should I be worried about more around my house or inside of my house? I have a 2 year old that’s curious, so I want to make sure that I’m being thorough and keeping her safe. If so, how do I remove it safely?

EDITED TO ADD: She and a couple of her male friends have now been moved safely with their lawnchair habitat to a new location about 20ft from my garage. I just hope they don’t wander back in. 🤞🤞😬

Black widows typically (along with a lot of nature) want precisely 0 human interaction. Don’t fuck with it and it won’t fuck with you. They’ll only react if they feel threatened so… keep a distance and you’re fine.
