An umpire goes with each party.
If within the given time (say about two hours) the fly has not discovered the spider, the spider wins. The spiders writes down the names of any of the fly patrol that they may see; similarly the flies write down the names of any spiders that they may see and their exact hiding-place. Marks will be awarded by the umpires for each such report.
The two sides should wear different colours, or be differently dressed (e.g., one side in shirt-sleeves).
