Okay. So.
EVERY MORNING I would run into a GIANT strand of spider web between the tomatoes and the peppers. It was like fishing line it was so strong and every morning as I went out to check on our tomatoes and peppers, I’d get a face-full of web. So I finally just accepted that the spider would keep rebuilding that one strand between the two garden boxes every day, and I learned to swipe at it before I walked between them.
And then last night, we let the dogs out and there was a HUGE web with a giant spider in the middle. We’re talking 2 feet across the main part of the web.

And a quarter-sized spider.

So I’m like…oh my god, this thing is going to kill me one of these days when I reach my hand into the peppers and it’s going to bite me and I’ll die and then what??
Mike got a broom, he gently swiped at the web to make sure he had control of where the spider went.
He put it on the ground.

WHAM. He smashed it with his foot.

I didn’t run into the web this morning.
