Spiders

Ok, so there's this spider in my backyard that has an abdomen a bit bigger than my thumb nail (I'm scared of spiders, so this alone freaks the hell out of me... biggest spider I've seen in anyone's backyard here ever)... however, I didn't get a good look at it yesterday.

This evening, I saw it again on its web... and although I won't get close because I'm scared as hell of it, it seems to be like an orangish colour with a dark line underneath. It didn't look like an hourglass shape to me, but there's no way I'm getting close to this thing again to take a picture or anything, other than to kill the fucker.

Since I'm a bit scared it could be a black widow or something (I don't even know if that's possible here, but I think it is), what's the safest way to kill this thing? Buy the most powerful spider spray and unleash?
