Last night's bites are subsiding.
The brown recluse bite on my elbow from last month has finally scabbed over.

An unkind co-worker suggested renting me to exterminator companies -- as bait!

This time of year we have LOTS of marbled orb weavers (Google Image these - I'm too squeamish to post pics) around the house, deck, and trees. Females can be huge - and the webs can span several feet.
Forgive me, but that line made me laugh out loud!
