    I remember hearing that the thin house spiders prey on the larger ones. Was surprised and didn't really believe it till I saw this!! I won't be so quick to get rid of them now!:)

    Big thanks to the 49pages of nature lovers (after the gambling) this is my go-to forum during this panepidemic to see your pics. I also enjoy the petpics in the animal and pet issues forum.
