We sure do enjoy the flutterbys around here. Husband started growing milkweed and I fell in love with the smell of the flowers. Monarchs like the milkweed. Have a lot of Butterfly bushes planted. Last year there were tons of flutterbys around them. Will be planting more for them when we decide what we need. Habitat is dwindling so people want to put in Butterfly gardens, they sure do appreciate it. All of them, Moths, butterflys,creepy crawlies. Not a spider person here, but try to leave them to their job. Just don't be in my airspace. Have transport systems in the house to help us move them to the outside when we come across one. Paper plate and plastic cup.

Nice photo and it would make a great art quilt. Someone on the QB recently showed a dragonfly that they had made. Loved it!
JabezRose: I also don't kill the spiders I find in the house. I have a humane spider catcher. It's looks like a flashlight handle with a long tube on it and a cap on the end. It runs on batteries and sucks up the spider without harming it. You turn it on, suck the spider up, put the cap on the end, and then deposit the spider outside. I use it for bees and other flying things too. You need to get one of these as it is easier than the plate and cup method. lol
