I am so glad that your daughter checked her helment. What a timely reminder that "tis the season" to check gloves, shoes, hats, and other items that are infrequently used or are left outside or in the garage.
We have family of black widow spiders that have been living in a underground water spicket box for years and years. They are very shy spiders and generally go about their business of eating bugs. Unless they actually build their nests ON the water valve I leave them alone and when I take the cover of the box to fill water tanks they move away.
Black Widows that take up residence close to the house don't fare as well. |
