season: winter
section: what is crawling

- almost nothing. that is the gift of winter.
- house spiders in the corners. they were there all year, you just notice them now.
- cluster flies in the window on warm afternoons. they are slow and confused.
- beneath the soil, grubs and larvae are waiting. the cycle does not stop, it just hides.
- this is the time to clean up debris where pests overwinter. rake, burn, compost hot.
