Unwanted plants growing between cracks in sidewalk

I'm avoiding them as I walk the dog because of my accident prone transits.

ready to contact the sidewalk police in my neighborhood. I did mention it to the school maintenance nearby because of liability issues with the several inch high clumps of grass and weeds growing between cracks in the basketball court.

Reminder to all you city/suburb homeowners to clear your sidewalks so we can all walk safely

I look down to see that I don't squish bugs.

You might be surprised at what you see when you look.

And it is not the plant that is unwanted, it is the cement that took her place at the first time, the plant is only taking back the space that she has the right!

What about ladybugs? Or busy ants outside just trying to take a shortcut over the sidewalk? They aren't bothering anyone. Linda had a special affinity for ants.

I wasn't thinking about ladybugs or ants, I was too hasty saying I hated all bugs, it's true of spiders though.

Spiders do eat bugs and keep them from overrunning the planet.

It goes back to prehistoric days, when, I suppose, there were probably a lot more poisonous species of spiders.

And the spider falls to the ground haha, i try to scare her away, and only than she turned around and lifted her front legs, wanting to fight!
