Im looking for a bit of advice on how i can get rid of some spiders in my mirrors. Ive tried to hold the hose firing water into the back of the mirror but that doesn't seem to drown them! i thought i could wrap cling film round the mirror to stop them from catching any flies and starve them but i couldn't see through the cling film. I tried again firing WD40 into the mirror to almost smoke them out? (apparently WD40 has some sort of fly repellent property in it) wonder if its worth taking the mirror off the car and submerging it in water to truly drown them?

Anyone know if its easy or even possible to do that?

My mirrors aren't electric they do manually fold in but no electrics.

or if anyone has a magic tip from getting rid you'd be my hero! :P

Cheers

your mirrors are still electric chap they are heated, they all come with the heating element in them.

i managed to get one out of my old fiesta by taking the glass out and then i caught it, but 2 weeks later there was another one

i cant help anymore than that im afraid

when i gets a web, i gets a blade of grass and lightly touches the web, sometimes the spider comes running out and just hit the web away with the spider on it, or find a ant, pick it up and throw it onto the web, the spider will also come out, just wipe it away when its out.

Petrol, then a match

ahhhh its so annoyed i had the car for 7 months without one now its crawling with them

liking the ant / grass idea -- Alan

Ohh god!! then bye bye mirror lol!!

Vax Vacuum cleaner with the extension thingy, all around the mirror, Job done

Jet wash and snow foam.

Compressed air should do the job!

I just leave mine there, get all the flies that go near my car

I wonder if a hairdryer would be enough to burn 'em out.

Those pesky hermit spiders!

i recently have got a new neighbor on my drivers side it doesn't like it when i press the button closing them in it comes out around and around the wing mirror then retreats.

As said ....

I've heard before that horse chestnuts work. Could split a few and glue them to the back of the mirror
