every vehicle in the current fleet is suffering from these little bast...darlings! has anyone had more luck than me in persuading these 8 legged squatters into moving on to pastures new...either lethal or non lethal depending on your particular views on the web spinning freeloaders! obviously any "products" have to be kind to plastic/paint/glass... if not necessarily the critters in question.

to pull their legs off you have to catch the sods! the only one i had heard of was conker in each corner of the room....not really applicable to door mirrors!
smell wise peppermint is probably the way to go...as long as it wont knacker any trim? may have a play with the pugly first.

Just live with them. They're part of the patina.

Fly spray - quick squirt behind the mirror.

I'm convinced they're an actual species, evolved to live in car mirrors! Jet wash always sorts me out

You need to put a bird inside each mirror.
I'm no expert but I'm thinking that if it worked for the old woman who swallowed a fly, according to the words of the song, then it should work OK.

A spray of wd40 (cover mirror first) around the back prevents their web sticking - lasts about 6 months until you need to apply it again.
Last time I tried peppermint oil I had WASP ISSUES. They love peppermint.

Just pull the webs off if they hinder your view, other than that leave them alone.
