Spiders and I have an agreement: don’t spin webs at people height. Spiders get the corners, ceilings and anywhere we don’t walk. If you try to spin a web on the bananas, RIP.
As long as the size doesn’t bug you, you’d probably enjoy huntsman spiders. They prefer eating other insects and even other spiders, and generally leave people alone, even run away from us. They dont spin webs, they eat any bug they can get, including venomous insects. They love eating mosquitoes and cockroachs. If for some reason you feel like attacking one, dont, not only are they helpful, they can jump quite a distance and are faster than you at their peak speed.

That’s a no from me dog. If I saw that in my house, I’d move. As in, move fast to the door and never look back. He can have the house, and all my shit. I’m taking my dog and getting the fuck out of dodge.
This is why I love jumping spiders.
I’d be terrified of a huntsmen spider, but I love jumping spiders i leave them be whenever I see them, knowing that they will snack on all the fruit flies, moths, and mosquitoes that make it into my house.
I love jumpers because they’re cute. The anime sized front facing eyes and movements that make them look so damn curious all the time—I just can’t get over those.
Tourist version -
Me - here’s your chalet. Remember, it’s very well insulated for the winter weather, so in summer just keep the windows and doors closed during the day and it’ll stay cool inside for the same reason, then you can open the windows in the evening. Otherwise it’ll just be boiling hot and full of flies. There’s no need for AC.
Guests - ok that makes sense
Guests two days later - MY CHALET IS BOILING HOT AND FULL OF FLIES YOU HAVE TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT I NEED AC
Me under my breath - seriously fuck off you stupid cunts
Spiders won’t eliminate your bug problem either. The presence of predators in an environment doesn’t imply all of their prey will soon go extinct.
You eliminate bugs by preventing their entry, reducing or removing their food and water sources, and/or interrupting or preventing their mating cycles. Or occasionally deploying something that kills everything in an area (though if you don’t also do the other steps above, they’ll eventually return).
I’m late to the party, but I don’t see this linked yet Can I introduce you all to Travis? This guy does deep dives into the spiders you might trip over in your house and has recently started also doing general spider knowledge as well.
Awe yiss. New channel.
I always worry that the spiders I leave alive will have ten million spider babies. Is that not a concern for any of you?
It’s not .
Most of them will just go outside due to their territorial nature.
But how can I stop the spiders? We have so many…
Spiders will die off when their food supplies decrease. Spiders are also quite hostile to each other, so they’ll never get overpopulated.
Except people don’t say that …
They say " I don’t want BUGS in my house"
The longleg spiders in my house stay around the ceiling near one of the windows, plenty of moths show up every once in a while. Also a bunch of tiny, pencil lead sized flying things.
Meanwhile, the ants all run around the floor.
You need to bring her offerings.
Ants should be allowed they are cool
Any spider smaller than a quarter is welcome in my home. Any spider larger gets served a non deadly eviction notice
