How to remove mud dauber nests in a fans coils.


Recommended Posts

I think I may have posted this a few years ago but can not find it. Could be on the old site. I get this a lot where I live. If a fan was stored in an attic or barn then I get mud dauber nests. This current Emerson I have 9 on the coils.

I can't imagine how it's possible your search missed it unless you had search on titles only set. The title spelled it daubber but the body had dauber.

I think I figured it out. Somehow the search was set to this topic only.

If it's a spyder it would be easier to just burn the house down! Other than that it can be handled... js...

We have black widow der Spinna's here all the time. You just do not stick your hand in where you can not see without gloves and if its outside not even then. Killed several copper heads in my yard. My rule is no hips no legs or arms and its not a water animal its dead.

Funny the spiders brought up.I got the fan about 3 weeks ago and was shipped,pulled it out ,sprayed lubricant all over the hardware,ran it a few minutes  ,stuck it back in a secure  box.I opened yesterday,ran it again ,sprayed lubricant all over let it sit.When I opened  it ,which took awhile.Rusted hardware.There was a lot of webbing ,I pulled it out.So after a spell a little black spider crawls out on my hand.It was shiny black and looked like a Black Widow except with white spots? The fan came from Illinois.Not like any here.They are tough .I squashed it with a paper towel.
