BTW, i have an agreement with spiders. they are allowed in my house as long the don't enter my personal space... though many break the agreement and die a quick and painless death. mmmmmm death.

If you kill all the ones that you see, the only ones left will be the ones that don't see. They are coming for you in your sleep!

They already do. On average a person will eat 8 spiders in his sleep during his lifetime.
Yummy.

Yeah, I thought that too and stopped killing every spider I saw.
After about 2 months my room was being overrun by them. It even got to the stage that they were eating each other because there weren't enough insects to go around.
So now I'm back to my "If it has 8 legs kill it" policy.

I usually leave them to eat the other insects.
Last night however I was forced to slice one up with a CD when it crawled into my bath towel, then insisted on repeatedly charging at my feet when I shook it onto the floor.
Silly thing.

Last time somebody claimed that on here, it was 5 spiders. The time before that it was 3.
On each occasion there was a jolly old argument about where the information came from.
Anyway, the truth of it be here.

Perhaps the fact that it is false is in fact the made-up fact. After all it is a fact that is being stated on the internet, and as this website suggests, these are generally false....

lol, good point
The two things spiders hate most (apart from de-legging ofc) are breezes and damp, so they're not very likely to sneak into your drool-filled snoring tube.

the best(cruel) thing to do with spiders is find as many as u can, stick them all in a small box together
and
watch
(u may have to prod them with sticks 1st to get them angry)

I hate spiders, but i hate insects more. And since i live in a country where all the spiders i see are small, i don't kill them, but let them take down the nasty insects instead.
They are soo tiny here. That's the best thing about norway, the small insects/spiders/bugs.
