I forgot to mention what happened yesterday before HS mowed the lawn. He came in looking for a can of bug spray because there were spiders on the tractor’s steering wheel (never mind that spiders aren’t bugs). I told him not to, mostly out of fear that the spray might ruin the finish on Mr. B’s precious John Deere. I suggested that he use a broom. What I meant was that he should brush them off gently (then they could go eat some bugs and we wouldn’t need bug spray at all).
Apparently he took a different approach. While I didn’t witness the altercation, it must have been a pretty vicious attack–he broke my broom!

I know a great source for hickory martial arts weapons. The jo (staff) would be just about the right size, and much better for fending off vicious spiders… –Katherine
