Spiders keep coming back on the mirrors,webs, droppings etc,have used Mr Muscle green glass cleaner,they are back next day in the usual places around the car. Silver met paint.

You should never displace a wing mirror spider! No good will ever come of it

They’re required by regulation I thought? Minimum of 1 per car. Usually dealer fit?

A £1k option per mirror on the AMG - the original owner of my car ticked all the boxes

years & years back ... EmilysMum watched a bird hopping along a line of cars in the car park from mirror to mirror looking for spiders.

I remember years ago I drive from Munich to Nottingham in my T25 VW. When i set off I noticed a spider on the wing mirror. He hung on for 18 hours and I took him to Nottingham. Free movement in those days....

I've heard that they're more concerned about the ones that hide under the seat. The one's that cause a fast evacuation when seen.

Evacuation… of the car, or one’s pants?

Either really but was meaning the spiders in the mirrors

As well as ABS, Our Landrover has LRS, Land Rover Spider.

They live all over the vehicle, one has been there for years and has become part of the family. Apart from anything else, they keep the flies away.

Personally, I would not trouble them. They do no harm.
