The house is a waterfront property in the country and as such has wildlife, birds and insects outside with whom we coexist. Although the house is thoroughly cleaned snd sanitized (inside and out) between each rental sometimes spider webs can reappear. Avoid leaving food or garbage outside that can attract insects or animals. Please clean up spills or you could attract ants inside.
