One of the cutest things I have seen in awhile.

10 years’ worth of rain fell in one week last July in Pakistan, affecting 20 million people, and leaving behind water that spanned an area the size of England. Spiders were marooned in trees by the flood waters.
Residents of the province said they had never seen this phenomenon before, but credited the spiders with reducing the mosquito population, which appeared lower than would normally be expected given the amount of stagnant water left behind by the flood. Yay for no malaria!
