Didn't one of those big refractor observatories in the USA have a spider problem at one stage , had the observatory technos really worried as they though the glass was buggered, took them months to eventually send someone up the tube to take a squiz at the back of the glass only to find it covered in mumfield spiders and their webs , who had , poor little critters , starved to death.
I guess they were "passing bricks" until they found it was spider webs and not cracked glass ....
