I've found two mud daubers in my spider room in as many days. I had a good chance to observe the second one after releasing it outside. I believe it's Sceliphron caementarium which in my little bit of research is said to be a solitary creature and that puzzles me since I've had two individuals in the same room in two days. My research further indicated that these are spider killers in my spider room! I tried to find how they hunt but could find nothing. How do they find the spiders to pack the cells of their nests? Are my spiders attracting them somehow? I can't think of a way how except perhaps with their excrement? My pinktoes do poo a lot. But anyway, I was just curious for more info in these giants. It was quite docile during the catch and release- I thought perhaps it was lethargic but later read that that is their nature. Just looking for some insight on the invaders. Thanks in advance!
