Has Anyone else noticed that spiders can't get enough of newly rendered walls even at this time of year as soon as you've finished the wall there will be a spider on it within minutes

Spiders are an elite quality control task force. Everyone knows that. They are checking your work
They dress all in black and rappel down the render with all eyes on the alert.

I think it’s because they consider your render easier to climb than a brick. Can you hang your coat on your flat? Render?

No it's too flat

Yeah, that's an interesting possibility.
UV reflectivity might also play a part. Humans don't see how vividly flowers etc. reflect UV, which can attract insects & spiders. I'm sure a lot of paints and renders probably interact with UV much more than we realise.

I'm sure you already know this, but cats have a long history of being left inside walls, due to some really sick superstitions

I've never seen spider coats hanging on the walls though buddy maybe it's something else they like maybe it's that flat it's like a challenge to climb up
Yes mate when we've finished putting mono on them fkers with the see through body are all over it, I reckon they're checking for shiners
Yes Becouse some spiders love moisture!
