This Queue was going to be about something else, but this morning as I walked out my front door, I was quite forcibly reminded that there is, in fact, a season in between Humid Swamp and Spooky Pumpkins Season. It is, in fact, currently Joro Spider season — though I guess that could be filed under Spooky Season.. I’ve been knocking down the little webs all summer, but now the survivors are back with a vengeance. And I thought I hated the winter doldrums.

This is The Queue, our daily column where you ask us questions and we’ll give you some answers just as soon as we get off the phone with the UGA entomology department extension.
