I've had a giant spider in my bathroom for months. Eventually, her little boyfriend moved in. They caught so many flies (I live in a barn). Sometimes, I'd walk in, and she'd have one in her mouth like a dog. I accidentally killed them diatomaceous earth recently because I was getting rid of ants. ๐Ÿฅฒ

Its the charlottes web universe, with the old yeller ending.

Hi, slightly off topic, but could you clear something up for me? Do you get to just leave the door open all the time? My parents seemed to be under the impression that's the only living arrangement where one could do that.

It just depends. When it was 100ยฐ+ for sure. But I also have a second story that's contained from the rest of the barn, so I don't have to worry about bugs or rodents TOO much. If I didn't have that separate space, I'd probably invest in an AC. The lower floor is also a cement tablet that chills overnight. Sometimes, I'll keep the doors closed until the slab warms up. It all just depends. At night, even if it's hot, I lock up. We leave the windows open on the second story with fans at that point.
