I vaguely recall that most of the yeasts in a wild starter actually come from the flour, so outside may not make that much difference?

Anyone every been tempted to leave a start outside to get more wild yeast spores
No, if you're using organic flour then you will have plenty of microbes that haven't been killed by pesticides available in the flour.
Also microbes in the air will come into your house anyway.
