Bugs


Mitch and I live right next to Duke Forest, it is great for a view for our deck and makes a great trail for running whenever I feel the need. However.... it does make some big scary bugs get way too close to us! We have spotted two cockroaches since we have moved in. Granted that isn't a ton, but it is two more than I wanted to see ever! Next move of action is buying roach houses and getting sprayed. There are a few spiders and ants and what not, but I can handle the little guys okay. Things got out of hand last week though when I came across a massive spider on the way up to our apartment. Which i am thinking means there are more and possibly bigger IN the forest a hundred yards away! I guess bugs are to be expected with the beautiful trees and warm weather but I can only handle so much!! So... it is, the first spider sighting!

Also I'll tell you about our pet Eno the frog. He has moved out of the pickle jar I was keeping him in and now lives in a tank with a cute lil' water dish and a vine he likes to sit on. :) Here he is!

  1. Maile,
    Are you sure that's a spider? It only has 7 legs.

    Hah. Jk.

    But really that is the freakiest thing I've ever seen.

  2. I have to agree that the bugs and spiders are bad here. Just when I thought we got rid of the ants coming in our front door they figured out there is a back door.
