Yep, and we're on the 11th floor of a high rise. They still manage to get up here and hang out/live right outside our windows. Ewwwwww.

We've seen our fair share of bugs in the house lately. But we have two cats, and I think chasing bugs is their favorite pastime (well, second to napping).

My apartment too. Not just spiders either. Today I think I discovered a new type of beetle. Chat Icon It was crawling in from the window. It was so darn nasty

We had an ant party going on, they drank the "punch" & I haven't seen them since.

When we had spiders galore, we cleaned out the little spots & cut back the trees near the house.

My mothers house is...she always says that if she had to give her house a name she would call it "Spiderhaven" In my house we get wolf spiders. GIGANTIC things with about a zillion legs! I hate em. I catch them in a glass and throw them outside, that is if my cats haven't eaten them!

When we first moved in, there were a ton of spiders of different sizes and shapes.

Luckily, we haven't seen any recently!

Ewwww! I know they're not very dangerous, but wolf spiders are huge and scary. I saw one outside by my house and it freaked me out. If I ever saw it in my house I would flip! (and normally I'm not that freaked out by spiders, but this thing was like tarantula size!). That is amazing that you can catch and release them, that takes some skill/nerve! Chat Icon

No to many spiders. And thrilled the ants haven't visited this year.

I have found 4 water bugs & I get beetles every now & then. They are so gross.

What sucks is that they all seem to love Cailen's room! Luckily he's not sleeping in his room yet, but now I'm freaked out when he does - what if he eats them in his sleep???

Not too many spiders, but I have been finding crickets lately....and they are so fast, there seems like no way to get rid of them. They tend to show up if I have to feed the baby at 4am and DH doesnt believe me

Since I've moved down to NC, I've seen spiders that would give you a friggin heart attack.....The biggest SOB that I've ever seen was right outside the front door the other day, and I swear my heart stopped for a few seconds!!! And the size of the legs on the daddy long-legs are UNBELIEVABLE
