Once we see 3 spiders in the house, nickel size or larger, we call the exterminator. He has already visited this year, much earlier than usual. I must say your spider makes the garter snake I "battled" in the backyard seem pretty tame.<br /><br />Can't wait to see your sunflowers when they bloom - be sure to share photos.Debbie@Like a Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07595737927336471561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4890086592337310125.post-30139644147597143012009-05-13T09:48:00.000-07:002009-05-13T09:48:00.000-07:00Just poking around on your blog, I love your garde...Just poking around on your blog, I love your garden!

Spiders are something I have a hard time allowing to live at all, but Black Widows (and Brown Recluses) are an absolute around here. If I find them, I kill them. (And, only in the last couple of years have Black Widows been found around here.)<br /><br />Some great pics otherwise, Greg!!! I know you're much warmer down there than it is here at my place, but man.... to see those cucumbers and tomatoes so big already!!!! Just astonishing!!!
