Be Nice to Spiders


I am so fascinated by spiders. Every summer I have a favorite one that I watch daily. Last summer I had a favorite Banana spider in the backyard. It entertained me from June til October. Then one night, a bad storm blew in and injured it and it died. That ended my dilema as to what to do when the cold weather came. I seriously considered catching it and putting it in an aquarium.
This year my favorite spider has a web on my front porch near one of the lights by the door. It started out as a tiny little guy. It only comes out at night and it traps lots of those pesky little flies that I hate. I keep waiting for it to write a message- like "Mind your own business" or something like that because the other day, Phil caught a giant roach and flung it into the web. The spider ran away and the roach fell to the ground. Even spiders hate roaches!

That's nasty. You know spiders are venenous and can kill you!

I can see being fascinated with a banana spider but that is no Charlotte! Ew, scary.

I just smash the little white ones with my bare hands, smile and walk away! BUT, I"ll stay clear of those you are interested in.
