HELP! Spiders in my car! - 07-09-2007, 02:16 PM
Ok, so today I removed three spiders and two spider webs from our E320. I don't know how they got in but it was kind of freaky since I hate spiders and these aren't exactly small ones (see the pictures!).

There was a spider web with spider right infront of me next to the drivers side pillar and one on the same side at the end of the B-pillar near the rear seats, again with a spider in it. The third spider was taking a trip near the instrument panel.

I don't know about you guys, but this is freaky. I hate spiders.

Haha

I clean the E320 at least once every two weeks. Full interior vacuum and scrubbing as well as outside cleaning. I suppose those spiders came in through the sunroof. My father always uses the sunroof and sometimes forgets to close it. Our garage is an underground garage that is dusty and full of spiders. I suppose that is how they got in.

Nasty little creatures...

Damn, I also hate spiders. And flies too. And mosquitos...

Oh well, I hope you will solve it.

I can't figure out why my clio that has not been cleaned by any means the last three years has only 3cm of dust inside while Wimmer's MB that is cleaned quite frequently has more "animals" than the local zoo

I think the spiders love the clean air inside the car and the nice atmosphere cawimmers Mercedes radiates! Instead of that, they hate dirty and uncleaned cars, like yours...
