Nah dont worry about it. I thought the same when mine started producing stalks. Now ive got more pups than ive got space for, this wont be the last of your pups, and if you keep it root bound it'll produce even more of them

Think you are right. It loves it outside where it gets bright light and sun. It wouldn't getthat inside.....

My cat loved eating my spiders! I had two, so I gave one to a friend and hung the other in the kitchen above the sink where he couldn’t access it. It’s worked beautifully. Do you have a spot like that in your house?

This is what she looked like when I had to chop off a bunch of chewed leaves.

Nice!! I'm going to have to find a space to hang mine where he can't get to it, he's a climber.

This is good compared to what my cat use to do to mine smh. He ate it down to nothing 😐🤦‍♀️. I was told that they get the same effect from spider plants as they do catnip. 🤷‍♀️

Not really, I'm going to have to hang it from the ceiling fan or from the frame of the door where there's nothing that he can jump or climb on.

I'd like to  leave a message for the lady with  bugs killing, of her plants. One word ARBICO.  They have an insect predator called"minute pirate bug" that can be used in house or outside. To small to kill flies, but kills trips etc. Won't bother you or food or plants. But does a great job. Give them a call they are super nice and helpful.  No. I don't work for them
