I have a cane by my front door to wave like a madman, in front of me 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. If the OP disagrees with your assessment, there are spider killers and deterrents on the market (although I don't know whether they work) from, e.g., http://www.pestcontrolshop.co.uk/acatalog/SPIDERS.html or http://www.abcfireandsecurity.co.uk/SpiderRepellent.htm |
