Mud daubers are solitary wasps that construct small nests of mud in or around homes, sheds, and barns and under open structures, bridges, and similar sites. Once the cells are made, she hunts for spiders, paralyzes them with her sting, drags the spiders into the cells and lays her eggs on top of them; she then covers the cells with more mud to create a smooth surface, leaving a hole to exit the nest and then seals it up.

$The wasp spider (Argiope bruennichi) is a species of orb-web spider distributed throughout central Europe, northern Europe, north Africa, parts of Asia and in the Azores archipelago. Like many other members of the genus Argiope, it shows striking yellow and black markings on its abdomen.\nThe spider builds a spiral orb web at dawn or dusk, commonly in long grass a little above ground level, taking it approximately an hour. The prominent zigzag shape called the stabilimentum, or web decoration, featured at the centre of the orb is of uncertain function, though it may be to attract insects.\nWhen a prey item is first caught in the web, Argiope bruennichi will quickly immobilise its prey by wrapping it in silk. The prey is then bitten and then injected with a paralysing venom and a protein dissolving enzyme.\nThe male of the species is much smaller than the female. It can often be seen in or near a female's web waiting for her to complete her final moult, at which time she reaches sexual maturity. At this time her chelicerae (jaws) will be soft for a short time and the male may mate with the female without the danger of being eaten.\nDuring Summer 2006, research was carried out in the UK to find that there has been an influx of these spiders to the UK (source Wikipedia).\n\nThis Spider is becoming quite common in the Netherlands. It came for the last ten years to the North of Europe through warming up the Climate.$
