I have spiders all over my house.
Some of them habitually fall into the sink and I pick them out, dry them off and put them back on the windowsill.
A couple years ago, we took the trailer to haul a bike home and as we took off the ramps, I saw a jumping spider panic and fall to the ground.
Her sac of eggs was on the underside of the ramp.
I picked her up, put her in an empty aspirin bottle and brought her back home so I could replace her on her nest once we were done with the ramps.
They will not harm you unless you hurt them first.
There is never a need to kill any thing, just because you fear it.
They value their lives, too.
Earlier this year she discovered a black widow, (with egg sack), outside in the yard.
I scooped it up, (egg sack too), and placed it in a field by our house.
Over the years we have found several black widows in the yard. I have a picture of one of them somewhere on the computer.
“They value their lives, too.” - Yes. Like all living
things; it’s really all anyone has. - I don’t kill
anything.
Aw, finally someone who knows how to treat the spiders right.
Two of my Jack Russels used to hunt the lizards until one of my Jacks went blind. The sighted Jack gave up lizard hunting. We have dozens of lizards now.
Do you have Brown Recluse spiders there? They are bad guys,!
I lived in an old farm house years ago...laundry was in basement (nothing else)...one day noticed a daddy long legs spider in a Web above washer...the next thing I know there are gobs of baby spiders there...I let them live...they were so cute...course if they went outside the sprays for the orchard likely killed them.
