| | | Re: Close ups. I tried again later but most of the drops had dried up. So I tried squirting more water on (as there was seemingly no resident spider) and it refused to work............. the water just ran off... most perculiar |

Not only on webs but also on leaves. I can't make it stay, but the "natural" drops do! |
