So, it seems like this year, we are seeing way more of the little spiderwebs all over the place outside. The kind you find in every corner against a fence, on the eaves, downspouts, wherever. Every year we see them, but this year in particular there seems to be at least twice the activity as normal. I'll clean them out with a brush and sometimes hours later the web is back. Is anyone else noticing and uptick in arachnid activity?

I haven't noticed an uptick, but they're always bad. I had to take the screens out of the windows because I got tired of the constant battle of webs in between.

Pest control! I pay $85 every quarter for a pest control company to spray the exterior with a pest control barrier and that cuts down on 90%+ of spriders and insects around the house. Spiders used to drive me crazy until I gave in and started paying the professionals.
