stavy asks:Would you kill a spider?

or would you gently shepherd it out of the house to safety?

those that would just run out of the room screaming need not reply :)

Only if Keewi gives us the O.K.

But seriously, we like to keep our herd of spiders handy to give the flies and mosquitos the heebie-jeebies.

Without a thought

Not only would I kill a spider, but I have killed them...LOT'S of them. I didn't feel the slightest bit guilty either.

I've done both

With spiders, they're often times just killed if they're in places they shouldn't be....like in the shower or the kids' shoes. We have several varieties here that can make us sick, so it's safer to get rid of whatever we can.

Pretty much any other bugs, though, I usher outside and avoid killing.

nooooooooo

keewi you must not kill spiders.. not only is it bad luck, you will increase the fly population in your home...

Totally in agreement with Stavy--I once killed a spider (accidentally, of course) and almost instantly had a run of bad luck including, but not limited to, gum on my shoe, cloudy days, rocks in my socks, new friends on the internet, etc.!! Go Spiders
