Well, under/in the garage. Clay+Stone = very little "basement" space...but it is "cubby" enough to lay eggs in.
Black snakes (Rat Snakes) chase copperheads out, btw. Not knowing this, my parents killed a few...and I got to walk within ~1 meter of one as a kid as a result, saying "I won't bother you, if you don't bother me..."
It worked...until I told everyone else there was a snake...then it met Mr. Shovel.
I've also seen a black widow and her young meet their end in a cup of bleach. It left the exoskeleton of the spider...and her babies in their eggs...you could make out the forms...
