Comments & ID Thoughts

I found these gems in my house this week I got the black widow from my stairwell that's brightly lit with dark corners where she was hanging out the little black spider on its back was first to be attacked he had been living in the bathroom he died quickly by the widows bite and at one point she also had the brown spider tacked down with webbing but overnight he broke free from and is now the last man standing as the widow is now dead also. I seen her attack this brown spider whom I had caught running by my feet in a very lit kitchen,the widow perhaps didn't get a lethal bite on him quick enough and maybe the brown spider was able to bite her first. Or maybe she spent all her energy attacking? I see weird residual liquid around her body parts that touch the glass as though it were sweat or something or venom seeping through her from being bit. I have no idea! This brown spider has lines on his legs so I didn't think he is a recluse but the widow is in fact dead and I don't know if any bite from any spider would cause her to die. I didn't know widows were fragile to other species bites. This brown spider I can't decipher it's species as the lines on his legs have me totally thrown off. The markings on the brown spiders back looks to resemble a fiddle. And the abdomen has those zig zagging configurations a recluse would have. I'm stumped. There are a ton of these brown spiders in my house. I also have four small children. I'd love to know right away what the heck spider this is.
