This summer I worked weddings at a garden, full of lovely rhododendron trees, lots of winding paths, and low hanging branches. Part of my job was to go around placing signs for every wedding blocking off parts of the garden. Some paths were wide and frequently used. Others were smaller, but still needed signs. Many of these paths were crossed by spider webs, and single strands of spider silk even just minutes after I had previously walked through there.
I often followed Madame Giry's advice.
I feel the same way when I'm running on my favorite trail. Even if someone had passed by recently, the spiders are quick to rebuild. It's hard while running, though, to keep my hands at the level of my eyes!
