For a week now I've had a baby jumping spider hanging out in my room. He (Graham Norton) mostly hangs out on the ceiling, patrols my plants on the windowsill and sometimes visits me at the computer desk. I can even see a little bit of webbing on the ceiling where he's made a hammock or maybe caught something.
I'm torn though, there's probably not any food in my room for him but it's also winter so moving him outside onto my balcony might not work. What's the right thing to do for Graham?
I used to regularly find zebra jumping spiders along my garden wall, when the area was amaturely managed as a wild garden. Not seen one enter the house but have had plenty of domestic spiders - even felt something crawling around in bed with me over the past few weeks.
I figure if something has found a way inside, it's probably sticking around for food sources I'm unaware of. Else it'd move on. Something has erradicated the clothes moth infesting my house this year. Also the occasional mosquito that's somehow still alive during winter.
Looking up bugs to try and identify the tiny black things I'm constantly finding on my windowsill .. they're probably a type of mite, like a black crunchy clover or carpet mite. Anyway, it's nice to have found those little ghostlike creatures crawling through my E-Book are booklice - how wonderful is that? How do they know it's a book?! lol.
