It's spider season!

It's that magical time of year again. The time when when every tree, lamp post and exterior house surface plays host to the intricate work of the humble orb-weaver spiders made with their finest threads.

I say, I simply feel compelled to build a big web and literally sit in it all day!
(Thanks Bel)

I see them everywhere right now, in many cases with 3 or 4 spiders building webs in the same place or 6+ around shoreline debris (they seem to really love the sea). Granted it can be a little unnerving to be out running and run face-first through a web and then 2 more before you can realize what's happening but I consider that a small price to pay for the vigilant watch provided by our flying pest eating arachnid friends.

There is even one dimwitted orb-weaver that built a web right over my front door which it sits in facing out, and it scurries to the edge every time I go through that door like it's some new thing.

And if it isn't spider season where you are or you don't have one, that's a damn shame:

This thread is now about how much spiders enrich your life personally, and why jumping spiders are hydrauliclly powered.

Or Ant Lions I guess.

Post your fav spider/clever wordplay involving how much you hate spiders!

(if this OP lacks content I am willing to do some revision)
