Do you kill spiders? I don't. I think they benefit me by killing fies and other nasty bugs. I am not over fond of then though and do clear webs from time to time.

Don't be mean to spiders. >:(
I like this. Me too! I've grown quite fond of spiders. When I first lived alone, I had to get over my fear of them. I can't kill them.
I had a pet one, Dave, for a while, but when he started putting his 8 feet on the sofa, flicking through the TV channels with the remote (you can do this pretty quickly with 8 legs), surfing my web instead of his own and demanding fresh flies for his supper, I told him to pay rent or p*ss off. He was also planning to bring his missus in, pregnant with their 500 kids. It would never have worked in a 1-bed flat.
I live in an area that has the Brown Recluse and the Northern Black Widow, lucky me!
I'm too frighten of spiders to be the one who kills them. Usually i have one of my family members come and take care of the spider for me. Usually they set the spider free outside. But yes there are times they do kill the spider, if they look scary!
Originally I'd only try to kill them if they were big, but one managed to have several hundred babies inside the walls or in our attic last year. For weeks we had baby spiders coming out of the cracks in the ceiling constantly and dangling around the lights.
Ever since then I've had no hesitation in killing even the smallest of spiders. If I become aware of a spider's existence then it's living on borrowed time.
They run faster than Usain Bolt I can't get up the stairs quicker than them, they have too many legs and beedy eyes.
Horrible things :-(
Poor baby.
Well done JC.
You are far too superior to be among us mere mortals.
I bow to your superior intelligence.
Maybe they've finally got the message ..
i once managed to flatten one from across the room with a well aimed ginsters pasty.
I'm seriously impressed at that accuracy
I actually bought a Nerf Gun (seriously
But then about 2 months ago, I was in my local Co-Op and looking at their reduced shelf and they had about half a dozen cans of RAID on the shelf reduced to 50p each so i bought all of them !
