The second output on my Source Audio C4 finally has a use

I was redoing my pedalboard (as I do way too often) and found something interesting when I removed my C4 from the board. At first it looked like there was a huge white piece of lint inside the second output, but upon further inspection, I realized that a spider moved in. She had some of her food in there as well, and the whole hole was filled with web. I felt a little bad that I had to evict her, but I also don't like the idea of a spider living inside one of my pedals...
I'm sure there's like 2 people who would've liked to see some pictures, but it's already all cleaned up
 
Gee, thanks for triggering my arachnophobia, now I have to check all my infrequently used pedals for spiders...
Did you know some of them are communal? Even tarantulas!

EDIT: I count seven.
 
A friend of mine who tends a bar in an old brick building in an old town revealed to me that apparently, cockroaches enjoy getting inside nice warm electronic devices, such as those pad computer / credit card reader things you see in bars and other businesses. She said the one she uses every night is a horror show if you were to look inside.

Something I, who owns many electronic devices, and also likes to drink beer, did not really need or want to know.

Honestly, I don't like spiders that much, but roaches are another level...
