One spider that scares the life out you when you walk into its web at 6 in the morning going to work it certainly leaves you wondering where the spider is when you untangle yourself not a small spider either but friendly enough to leave alone in the garden the web is so sticky

Not a species that I have to deal with but seems that I have to daily deal with walking into webs every morning.  I've learned to walk with my hands in front of my face to avoid the uncomfortable feeling of a web in my face.  I swear that they purposely spin their web at the height of my face just to annoy me!  Or they're convinced that my tongue would make a nice snack...

Love 'em. Wherever I have lived, they have always been in the garden.

A great little critter to keep the ecosystem in balance in the garden that’s for sure.
