Default Extra strong spiders webs this year?

Either that or I was feeling particularly weak yesterday. Some pretty
big spiders too. (Orb ones I think with huge backsides!)

They'd also reclaimed across the front path (just a couple of threads)
within an hour of my son going through it this morning. Should I be
worried about how many we have round here yet?


You are not alone. There seems be an awful lot around this year and
they all seem to be competent and prolific web-builders!
