Winter has arrived. What happened to
all the six legged creatures we saw in summer? Where did the
crawling, scuttling, flitting, buzzing multitudes go? Those of us who
live in temperate and colder climates notice the disappearance of
practically all insects when the weather gets cold. We are talking
about the ones that live outdoors, not about those aggravating
creatures that have found their ways into our houses and turned them
into their homes.
