Don’t Kill The Spider
Why? Because spiders are an important part of nature and our indoor ecosystem—as well as being fellow organisms in their own right.
People like to think of their dwellings as safely insulated from the outside world, but many types of spiders can be found inside. Some are accidentally trapped, while others are short-term visitors. Some species even enjoy the great indoors, where they happily live out their lives and make more spiders. These spiders are usually secretive, and almost all you meet are neither aggressive nor dangerous. And they may be providing services like eating pests.
