Black widow spider under screened bottom board YIKES

I don't really like spiders, but can mostly ignore them. I'm afraid that a black widow isn't one of them. I have lots of kids that play in my yard and she had two large egg sacks as well. My daughter is my apprentice and I'm just not comfortable w/ the black widow hanging out around my hive.

I think I will have to get a coat hanger and have my husband help squish her when she come out and break the egg sacks.

I know that she is probably eating a lot of insects that I don't want in my hive, but the advantage just isn't there in my mind.
