I couldn't decide if these should be classed as Pests ('cos they eat beetles) or Livestock ('cos they eat bugs) so I've plumped for Chatter :roll:

I was reading the Telegraph Blogs and Lila Das Gupta has a new gardening blog. She's found wasp spiders on her plot, has anyone else seen them? I certainly haven't spotted any so far.

There's a photo on the blog

No, I haven't seen one, but I hope I do. They look cool!
(And I heartily approve of her mating habits. :wink: )

Ugh Jenny, I can't even look at the photo without my fur standing on end. I'm truly hoping I never meet one. :shock:

I agree with the mating habits too :lol: I can't see a problem there.
