SPECIAL GARDEN ALERT: This year has seen an infestation of the little-known arachnid Araneidae Potterybarnus, commonly known as the "Tea Light Spider." This creature is harmless to people and plants, however it may startle the cat. Will disappear after October 31.
Can you please give a little more information about the size of these spiders? I have a friend who swears she saw one in her neighbors yard, it was a HUGE one, HUGE! WIth green legs and a blu-ish belly! What about those? Do they bite? This one was on it's side, sputtering, but we all stayed a good four feet away. Any advice?
This site is maintained by me with the help of the DHHG interns. (They're nice, but they absolutely refuse to do any heavy lifting.) The DHHG is a great place, and I'm learning so much about furniture placement and drapery pleats, but I'm not sure how much longer I want to work in government. Anyway, I'm no techno-genius, but since my boss can hardly open his e-mail, he's all "YOU run the Blog." Whatever.
