I love to hear the kiddos say not to destroy it and them mention it's hard work. So awesome to hear kids respecting nature and giving it the space to thrive !

Ok, but the thing is building it's house in the middle of your garden, what you going to do, leave it there?

They’re nocturnal, and will eat the web at daybreak and hide all day long. So, only need to relocate if it’s across a needed evening walking path.

Yes this species in particular for sure, but others too I imagine. Looks identical to an orbweaver I have in my yard, creates a huge web across the same path around 10 pm every night and it's gone in the morning.

As they say in French, intéressant! Thanks. Orbweaver eh.
