I was putting up curtains for my parents this morning and a spider hanging out nearby had its web wobbled by pulling out the curtain pole, then it just oscillated violently for like 30-60 seconds.

Remarkably versatile creatures, i would probably die if i was getting shaken that quickly. But i guess it happens a lot to them because they usually live on their cobwebs, in suspension and at the mercy of wind or passing beasts.

Most importantly yellowjackets, the terrorists of the natural world.

Until you have 30+ running around at night leaving webs on and around everything that you get to walk through and clean up. And I mean everything floor to ceiling strands from them dropping down, across doorways, spanning anything they walk across. No. I don’t have a problem with them outside, do your work little buddies, but not in the house. It’s bad enough anything in my garage gets covered in webs within a day, I don’t need it in the house.
