Weather and spiders

The weather here has been alternating very hot days and sharp summer thunderstorms. A few fires around.

And the huntsmen spiders are coming into the house. One last night and two the night before. I thought when I had really noticed Huntsmen Peak Time (HPT) that it was March. But I wonder if it is more a factor of the weather???? Nice little spurt of rain and they get adventurous????

If it is, I am beginning to think it is a good feature of drought!

Definitely more ants in the house in drier times - looking for water as well as food.
