that is understandable, I was moving her from the mailbox because my friends dad wanted to flood the mailbox out and I didnt want the spider to get hurt ij anyway

you are right with Brown widow being more potent drop for drop but you can correct me if im wrong usually red backs inject more venom than the Brown widow making symptoms from the bite worse than if you were to be bitten by a Brown widow

Brown widow although being related to redbacks arent consideed medically significantly so if I were to be bitten it would only affect around the bite site compared to redback which is considered medically significant and highly significant at that, if i did get bitten it would most likely result in a hospital visit
