At the makerspace we have some 3d printed boxes with a custom circuit board inside that we use to control various things round the space. Yesterday one of them started giving weird errors. We wondered if it was software, or hardware.
Well today we found the bug.
Literally. Seems a spider had made it's home next to the CPU, and caused some corrosion to the pins so it lost connectivity...
First proper bug I've come across in a circuit...
