I've seen them stick to various wall material, sides of pots, bamboo table, probably forgetting a few things. They can attach to the wall, so keep an eye out for that. It will pull off the paint when the root is pulled loose afterward, and/or leave a "skin" attached to the wall.

I have read that organic fertilizers (may?) need soil microbes to fully convert to useable components. The table looks like a great site!
