I don't know if it has to do with a change of mooring, but I find that I am recently (last two months) overtaken with spiders and bird droppings. I use a "no pest strip" in the cabin, which seems to help there, but topsides is out of my control. I'm thinking about rubber snakes for the birds, but don't have any idea for the multitudes of spiders. any suggestions?

I dont know about the spiders but we used swimming NOODLES from Kmart and tied them around the boat moorings with duckt tape it kept the gulls off the boat and moved them to my neighbors dock
