yep its that time of year there are zillions of the randy little and not so little blighters all over the garden, i reckon they like the bark chippings. i went to dead head the roses and it was like something out of one of the harry potter films cobwebs everywhere between all the plants it was like sticking your hand into a tub of candy floss. never seen so many. loads in the house too mind not been bothered by many flies this year so the spider must be eating well lol.
