Arachnophobia

To someone who is not fond of spiders, this harmless, bulbous female orb weaver is pretty freaky looking. She decided to take up residence inside a playhouse that my grandkids frequent and this didn't go over well with everyone. To me it was pretty cool especially since Halloween was just around the corner, but needless to say my opinion didn't put smiles on any faces. So before she became what would resemble a Jackson Pollack painting I scooped up the little lady and relocated her away from the play area.


I'm never concerned about spiders unless of course it's poisonous (black widow, recluse) and even then I'm more than likely to transfer it off into the woods where they can do what they do. That's just the way I am and as I've said before- some folks think that's just strange....
