I keep getting spiders/ webs all over my outdoor plants. We remove them and they just come right back the next day. Any tips on how to keep them away?

if they’re actually spiders it’s not a bad idea to let them hangout to keep pests at bay. If they’re spider mites then you need to treat them

They are actual spiders. Huge webs just next to the pots- not in the plant. So they aren’t bad for the plant?

Yes they eat pests

oh yeah a friend to your plants and a friend to you catching things that fly around your head and/or bite!

I have some on my sunflower, I usually try to water it without disturbing their webs because they have more benefits than cons. If they’re not disturbing your actual plant health it might be best to just leave them. If you wanna keep them away you can always plant mint with your outdoor plants, they hate mint.

The spiders keep rebuilding the nest because they are getting lots of food in that area. Let them stay.
