The doors are brand new, tightly sealed & the building was just built
a couple years ago to green building specs—super insulated,
airtight.  The problem is the spiders seems to be coming in when the
doors are opening & closing.  We have 250 people working here & many
many visitors. Doors are propped open sometimes so things can be
moved in & out, etc.
