An unexpected side-effect of the flooding in parts of Pakistan has been that millions of spiders climbed up into the trees to escape the rising flood waters. Because of the scale of the flooding and the fact that the water has taken so long to recede, many trees have become cocooned in spiders' webs

lol, the article says they're sort of a blessing because all the disease ridden mosquitoes are being trapped by the webs saving people's lives. sounds like a Win-Win situation to me
 
Seeing these photos made me think...won't this kill the trees?
