What lives in the Walls...(new home or old home)

What kind of cheese will I eat today? curious and a little creeped
A little less than a year ago I had moved from an older home, aprox built in the 60’s to a home that was built three years ago and now I find myself on the same adventure.
Summer has approached and all the things that live in walls come out for a visit. Or at least, that seems to be the creepy case.
In my previous house, it may have been old but what lived in the walls, stayed in the walls. (Unless the wolf spider had outgrown its domain, then there would be an awkward confrontation with him trying to get out the front door without getting the loafer in the ass). But the heat has jumped quite a bit recently and I find myself killing spiders (odd one’s at that) almost constantly.
The other night I was just about to go to sleep when I heard the strangest noise.
“What was that?” I said aloud.
“It wasn’t me.” The monster in my closet replied.
“Oh. Can you get the lights?”
When the lights flickered on to a painful 60watts, I was caught off guard to see a creepy lookin’ thing creepin’ round my room. “Ah! You must be destroyed!” I yelled grabbing my most recent John Le Carre novel and flinging it at what looked to be a spider. When the book hit the spider, it actually made a loud ‘crunch’ sound. This I found was a little disturbing. The monster and I soon were in a deep slumber. Everything was okay.
But my point being, I found it peculiar that my older home seemed to be in better condition than my newer one. Could it be the wearing in of a home? Or has our building methods cheapened that much over the years?
