    A) Spiders

    B) Flies don't go into the boot.

    Solved :)

    I hate the way spiders rebuild their webs.

    The mirror makes the property appear larger.

    I think they're cool. If they cover the glass, it makes it look like everything behind you has been infested with giant spiders.

    Spiders are notoriously vain and car wing mirrors are the best place to be to catch prey and check themselves out at the same time.

    This little git was living in my mirror til recently.
    As soon as I got a good look at him, I decided to evict.

    Normally I don't mind them being there if they are normal spiders, but the bastard offspring of a crab and a tarantula just isn't welcome in my mobilamobile.
