[Clinging Bitterly]

They say (and I believe it) wherever you are, you're never more than 3 feet away from a spider. Meanwhile, there seems to be a big tick infestation in this area this year. I wonder what kind of spiders would kill ticks. And scorpions and vinegaroons.

Wife hasn't encountered either of the latter here yet. When she does she'll probably want to move back to western Oregon.

After reading your post I thought to myself... hmmmm I wonder that’s true. Then later today as I am opening the door to let my kid in a small black spider is hovering on a single line of web, inside my doorway, saw me and started scooting back up. I killed it immediately and then thought, oh my gosh, that poster was right!!!
