As it turned out, the base of the sandbox was the perfect material for spiders to use to lay eggs.

My husband's in charge of bugs when he's home, but I do my best to put on a brave front while he's away. My girls are afraid of ants, but not spiders.<br /><br />I almost quit my job a couple of years ago because of a cricket infestation. My boss found me a temporary office in another building so I wouldn't have to deal with the crickets. Oh, they were Biblically bad.<br /><br />Maybe the spiders are why I so dislike Halloween.Sadiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04042551936789254047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-998204900912962092.post-15692466994509083202009-10-26T12:28:39.259-06:002009-10-26T12:28:39.259-06:00Ironic that the spider pictured generally doesn...Ironic that the spider pictured generally doesn't weave webs. OK, I've been around bugs and spiders most of my life and am generally fairly intrepid--except with spiders. Oh, I've killed more than my fair share (and big ugly cockroaches) and I'm generally OK, if I have a weapon and <i>it's not actually on me</i>.<br /><br />Once any creature with an exoskeleton gets on me, I <i>lose my mind</i>. That applies to spiderwebs as well. I love the shirt that says, "We have nothing to fear but fear itself...and SPIDERS." *Shudders*<br /><br />I will spare you the stories I know, compounded by the fact I always seem to live somewhere where the spiders are particularly toxic.<br /><br />Good luck!Stephanie Barrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17772217449161603561noreply@blogger.com
