SPRAY a bug killer or household cleaner - air freshner into the box .... drop a cigarette in there and the smoke will cause it to come OUT ... +5

Just use a stick or whatever you have on hand to scoop her out. Stick her somewhere that kids or pets aren't likely to come across her.
-
Take the bug spray out there and spray it into and on the outside of the box.
-
just spray it out with a water hose.

Use a hose.

Ask your husband to give you a hand.

If you don't have any bug spray, household cleaners like Windex or Formula 409 work just about as well. I must now go wash my brain of that visual (I hate spiders...:-P..)

are u sure iff its a black widow? if it is then be extremeley careful because they are poisonous (although they only attack when they feel threatened) i reccomend using a bug killer or getting an extermenator but dont try to grabit yourself because it might bite u
-
Spraying it with an insecticide or getting a long branch with leaves and drag it out; especially if it has made a web. The web of a black widow is quite "sticky"!
-
Dont use a hose! get a can of raid and spray it, then when shes dead carefully remove the spider with a paper towel, you dont want her wet, pissed off and bite you by doing something dumb with a hose.
-
Ewwwww spray it with windex...it kills bugs!
-
Spiders in general have a hard time understanging that poisons are supposed to kill them. Your best bet is to get a stick (long enough to make you comfortable doing this) and mash her and scrap her out of the mail box where you can stomp the cr*p out of her. Then clean your mailbox thoroughly and inspect it frequently to ensure you get any more of the buggers if they show up.

You could smoke it out, or use bug spray but if you want to get it out with out killing it. take a spray bottle and fill it with lemon dish soap if you do that and spray the mailbox the spider will leave spides dont like lemon at all .-.
-
just move and get a new mailbox ;)
