      Well maybe butterflies are a bad example. Maybe spiders. If you see one it’s not a big issue but if suddenly your house is overflowing…

        Well their job in nature is to break down dead plants and help add nitrogen to the soil so it is ripe for replanting when a random seed or what not lands and works into said soil. The fact that they are in homes in theory means we either have rotting wood or some kind of organic matter that they are finding nice to break down. Otherwise I figure they would just move on because they have no food source.

        Spiders I let build webs over the first 1/4 of my door frame on the way down, because I remember to duck and they don’t cause me any harm, while keeping some other bugs who try to fly in when I open the door out. It is a symbiosis that ends in a face full of cobwebs when you arent paying attention lol
