      I think you’re right. It has the dark bands on the leg joints, along with the brown colour and rough body dimensions of a brown widow.

      These ones are much less dangerous than a black widow and may be displacing black widows from their common habitats.

    The picture isn’t great and it’s 7 months late. But I’d say Latrodectus geometricus, a brown widow.

      Very true, but thanks for taking a look. We were able to confirm it with the orange marking :)

        Someone mention this community in another post, so I just hopped over, saw “0 comments” on a spider post. Can’t let that stand!

        Glad you already figured it out!
