Can spiders crawl through half slabs?

This design is very simple, but requires player intervention. Once the cave spiders are collected in the grinder, the player can hit them to their death.

Does light shine through slabs Minecraft?

Since 1.4. 2, half slabs block light from passing through them. So although you can see the lit glowstone (and smooth lighthing may cause the surrounding area to light up a bit), there isn't any "real" lighting going on, so the rest of the room will still remain dark, allowing for things such as mob spawning.

Since the method used to cling to a surface is molecular force, rather than gripping, hooking or grabbing, a spider can stick to any dry surface, whether it is slick or rough. For example, a slippery glass tank keeps most climbing animals and insects near the bottom since it offers nothing to cling to.

Spiders don't have ears—generally a prerequisite for hearing. So, despite the vibration-sensing hairs and receptors on most arachnids' legs, scientists long thought spiders couldn't hear sound as it traveled through the air, but instead felt vibrations through surfaces.
