Those spiders in the trees were also greatly responsible for keeping mosquitos and the spread of disease from getting out of hand.

spiders? Why couldn’t it be "follow the butterflies"?!

Okay, that is really really fucking cool. Anyone got video footage of them all scurrying around up there? Spiders don't usually work together like that, so it would be awesome to witness how they behave territorially.

Pfft, every Bird Cherry tree in Sweden looks like that during the summer. We have a species of butterfly that likes to lay eggs in Bird Cherry trees, and the larvaes weave huge nets. Then they hang from tiny threads from the branches and have massive larvae orgies inside net balls.

I endured several floods in the bayou in Lousiana. One thing I didn't think about at the time: when it floods, EVERYTHING comes to the surface. Spiders, ants, rats, snakes, cockroaches, everything. Even though we got out of school for a couple of days and it was fun to play in the waist-deep water for a while, it wasn't so much fun dodging and running from clusters of ant mounds and cotton mouth snakes trying to make it to higher ground. All the nastiness that is hidden from view suddenly appears at crotch level. Yikes.

I understand this being scared of spiders thing is a meme. It just makes me wonder how many people are actually scared of spiders or are just interested in the meme and scaring people scared of spiders.

Actually it's because the still water increased mosquito population, giving the spiders A LOT of prey. Thus, spider population increase and huge, spider-filled trees.
