It’s that time of year again….Nearly autumn and Spiders are appearing all over the place. If you’re not having to cope with a Common House Spider the size of a saucer in the bath first thing in the morning, then you’re walking smack bang into the spiral-type webs of the Common Garden Spider every time you go to the dustbin or hang the washing out! The little male Garden Spider pictured above (the female is much bigger) had spent most of the morning sun-bathing in the middle of his intricate web tucking into his tasty, home-made insect pie with the secret “venom-x” ingredient injected to help soup-up the contents….Gordon Ramsay would be proud! Interestingly, I was once taught that an “insect burger” about the size of a McRonald’s may not only be tastier, but would be about twenty times more nutritious….Yummy!
