I like to keep a lamp on in the kitchen. Since passing insects are drawn to it, spiders tend to set up camp in its vicinity.
This keeps down the population of passing insects, and the spiders seem content with the arrangement.
Occasionally, my wife disturbs the scene, but the spiders appear to take this in good stride, perhaps considering that their webs were getting dusty anyway. They simply spread new material out.
Some spiders are quite artistic in this display, but to truly appreciate it, you have to be able to see in ultraviolet light. This probably explains why many people do not appreciate them.
We had to remove an orb weaver yesterday. She was setting up to obstruct our front door.
Elen put her in the shrubbery.
I try to get rid of dust because when the wind blows, my lungs act like a vacuum cleaner and I end up on the nebulizer with a vial of nitroglycerin spray in my hand.
