Alot of people ive talked to in the past had that type of soil with similar problems.  Im also a excavator by trade and I've seen first had how hard these materials can get if too much moisture and drying occurs. Just excessive moisture on the anus of the spider from defecating mixed with said materials would turn to concrete. Just my two cents.</blockquote>
