Clayton woman horrified to find black widow in grapes

>>> A CLAYTON WOMAN IS

HORRIFIED AFTER REALIZING A

BLACK WIDOW SPIDER WAS LIVING

IN GRAPES AT A STORE.

THE DAUGHTER CAUGHT IT MINUTES

BEFORE EATING A GRAPE.

AND SHE HAD ADVICE FOR OTHER

SHOPPERS.

MIKAYA THURMOND.

>> Reporter: THIS CAN BE

TERRIFYING.

DO WE EXPECT TO SEE SPIDERS,

OUTSIDE, DO WE EXPECT TO FIND

THEM INSIDE OUR BOX OF GRAPES?

ABSOLUTELY NOT.

IMAGINE THE SURPRISE FOR THIS

CLAYTON WOMAN SURPRISE WHEN SHE

OPENED UP THE BOX AND FOUND A

BLACK WIDOW INSIDE.

A RELAXING DAY AT THE POOL

WOULDN'T BE COMPLETE WITHOUT

SNACKS.

SHE AND HER DAUGHTER HAD NO

IDEA THAT THEIR BAG OF FRUIT

WAS HOME TO AN 8 DAY RESIDENT.

>> SHE LOOKED DOWN AGAIN AND

SHE SAW THE SPIDER, OH MY GOD,

IT'S A SPIDER, MOM.

>> IT WASN'T JUST ANY SPIDER,

IT WAS A BLACK WIDOW.

>> SHE SAW THE HOURGLASS ON THE

BELLY AND IT'S A BLACK WIDOW

SPIDER, MOM.

>> I SAID OH, MY GOD.

>> SHE COULDN'T UNDERSTAND HOW

THIS HAPPENED.

SHE BOUGHT THE SEED LESS GRAPES

FROM BJ'S WHOLE GRAIN SELLER

THIS WEEK, MY HUSBAND AND I HAD

BEEN PICKING OUT OF THESE

GRAPES ALL WEEK.

>> WHEN SHE NOTIFIED THE BJ

STORE MANAGER WHAT HAPPENED.

THEY APOLOGIZED FOR HER

EXPERIENCE, IF YOU'RE WONDERING

WHAT HAPPENED TO THAT SPIDER,

WELL SHE KILLED IT WITH MINT

SPRAY AND PUT IT IN THE

FREEZER.

IT WILL AWHILE BEFORE SHE WILL

EVER EAT GRAPES AGAIN.

>> WE REACHED OUT TO WELCHES TO

SEE IF THEY HAD A RESPONSE.

WITH AN HOUR WE HEARD FROM BJ'S

WHOLESALE AND THEY TOLD US IN A

STATEMENT THAT THEY WORK WITH

SUPPLIERS TO INSURE THAT THEIR

PRODUCTS MEET HIGH STANDARDS.

THE WOMAN SAID SHE'LL TO A

BETTER JOB OF WASHING FRUIT,

BUT FOR NOW, NO MORE GRAPES.

>> IT'S A GOOD REMINDER TO WASH

OUT PRODUCE AND FRUIT AND

INSPECT IT BEFORE WE EAT IT.
