What critter leaves little black dots on walls and patio furniture?


Recommended Posts

I have been noticing over the years of living here that something is leaving tiny little black dots on my patio furniture, tables, and such.  I have a terrace bathroom, I've been noticing it going up the mirror, on the toilet, even going up the walls.  They are generally very small, flat little black dots, usually in a somewhat vertical line.  They wipe off pretty easily, they are not droppings that I can tell.  I thought perhaps they might hold eggs of some kind.  Has anybody else noticed them?  They can usually be found on things that are open up to the outside.  I was just wondering what insect could be making them.

Ha, you never owned a boat did you? - spiders. Up here I kept mine at a marina and "spider spots" were the norm for the day, sometimes they had to be bleached out of the gel coat. At my house in Riberas the spiders were prolific on the terraza despite my spraying etc. and yes, lots of spider spots.
