Default spider problem

I've had my a4 for about 3 weeks now, and recently i have seen little baby spiders crawlin on the seats and out of my sunroof into my car. Any suggestions out there to get rid of this little spiders?! Need to know ASAP. Pretty annoying. Thanks in advance.

Default 2 ways...

I had the same problem. Some spiders seem to seek the light, others the dark. So, get some nice sticky tape (duct tape worked for me) and leave a square or 2, sticky-side up, near where you found them. For me, it was where the windshield met the dash. This takes time, so do it when you leave your car alone for a while.

Vacuum cleaners eat bugs really well. Vacuum your car very well...no more bugs.

If you set the car on fire, chances are that the spiders will be killed.

Default closing the sunroof might help ;)

Bugs used to love my old A4, prob. got attracted to its color (red) but they never got inside the car.
