As for the benefits of spiders in the house, they’re usually outweighed by the negatives.
I do let the ones in my garden live as well as the ones inside by my plants so they can keep the pests down.
I find a Black Widow in my basement once in a while. They definitely die.
Most of the spiders in my house look very much like the poisonous Hobo. They may not be Hobos (hard to identify), and probably not as harmful as reported, but I don’t want to take the chance, so they are not spared. Also, their webs get on my face and creep me out. Webs also collect dirt and look horrible.

I am with Garfield to stomp these spiders with old and hard boot. I do not allow any bugs flying around inside my home and also I do not allow the spiders trepass and hide with it’s webs and wait for bug to catch on the web. Forget it! I will kill the creepy spider with the Raid bug killer spray.
William Pursell,
OMG, that’s disgusting - don’t know why. The thought of eating chocolate covered ants doesn’t turn my stomach.
So what would you use, chocolate coating, or A-1?

I thought it was called Weasel-Stomping Day?

Nah, that’s June 31st or the 22nd of any month.
Spider-stomping time is anytime a spider is big enough to live in a doll-house.
