Should never have watched 'Arachnophobia' yesterday.......

Spiders only come into clean houses, they don't like dirt because it attracts entirely the wrong class of fly; but yes, they're coming in because it's getting colder outside and they're looking for a warmer spot to winter in. We've had a couple of the big, brown, hairy legged variety appear, only to be eaten by a cat.... However, the garden has been full of Garden Orb spiders since August - the most amazing webs that have stretched a clear 6ft across the pathway and one that was right across the back door. They've never spun so big that early so I'm expecting a rough winter.

And those brown recluses are just downright nasty!
