Crack Spider

Island Boy discovered a spider setting up shop in between our patio door and the track it slides on. Island Boy examined the spider at close range. The spider, naturally, retreated into the crack.

"Where is it?", Island Boy inquired. I explained that the spider was hiding in the crack.

He wanted to know more about what kind of spider it was and why it was making a web. We explained. That was yesterday. Today, the web had grown and I decided I'd had enough of the spider. We called in Daddy, aka Spider Removal Expert.

Daddy escorted the spider safely outside. Once outside, Island Boy gave us a detailed commentary about the incident.

"Daddy said it was a house spider and put it outside. The Crack Spider made a web and Mommy didn't like it. The Crack Spider is outside now." That pretty much sums it up!
