OK, I know they have their place in the garden, but I have more than my

share!! I have a cane by my front door to wave like a madman, in front of

each morning to avoid a faceful of webs and their occupants. My pergola is
covered in webs........they run from walls to any garden
plant................ggggrrrrrr. I don't want to exterminate them, but I'd
love to discourage at least some of them. Any ideas??
Thanks from a web haired....

I'm sure you don't have any more than anyone else!
Having spiders in your garden means you will have fewer pests.
There is nothing at all you can do to discourage them, so you will
just have to learn to love them.

I agree.

I thought we didn't have any in our car port until spouse did a lot of
sawing of wood. The webs showed up brilliantly when they were covered in
dust.

And so MANY!

I think it's a privilege.
