    A few days ago I removed several webs (and spiders) that were too close to the front door outside, where people walk.

    … But I left a big spider that was nicely out of the way with its web in the frame of a window.

    I hope the trick-or-treaters appreciate what I did for the sake of the holiday.

    You will never catch me putting that fake web up. It NEVER goes completely away. God have mercy on the souls who put it outside. Then it rains.

      To be fair, most of the decent fake web has no issues with getting rained on.

    Daddy long legs just spit web everywhere and make a mess. I think replacing their bullshit with a more visually appealing and structurally sound fake web would be cooler for them.

      Don’t blame the daddy long legs they don’t even have silk glands so they can’t make webs. All the other spiders laugh at them.

        Depends on where you are and what is referred to as a daddy long legs. The ones in the Midwest and northeast certainly don’t have web makers or even fangs that could harm a human. Just weird little reddish-brown balls with Tron legs. The ones here in the southwest are clearish-yellow-white, and certainly spin messy webs with no structure. The one in Australia will kill you because, of course they will.
