I used to do this. Then one time my room took it upon itself to fill itself with flies. It took me 2 days to clean up the fly corpses. I decided that I'd prefer spiders and their natural fly catchers in my room to flies, and now we live in harmony.

There was an old lady who swallowed a fly, she swallowed a spider to catch the fly.

Just sayin'. Nature in balance

Oh those spiders, had no idea they were venomous, they come across quite placid, sometimes see one scurrying across the floor.

Certainly never been a threat least in my eyes, they leave me go i leave them go.

The house spider has enought venom to cause you a nasty reaction, But its teeth (fangs) are to small and brittle to pierce your skin.

It's a spider, not Godzilla, you big girl.

A hawk moth? Oh wait maybe it mutated into a spider.

haha, I'm not the biggest fan of spiders, but usually they don't bother me. This one however really was substantially bigger than the average, and more to the point, dropped down from the ceiling and actually came at me.

That's not normal.

You don't seem a fan of any animals?

Get a cat I had one that chased spiders.

I don't go about killing any spiders I find in my house, if they come at me though like you said the one in your pic did then i would take the nearest shoe/ newspaper to it!

If you don't like them pick it up and place it outside.

Why kill them ?

had one just like that run past me yesterday. nearly poo'd myself. usually never see spiders because the cats like to eat them but they obviously never fancied there chances with one thats bigger than their head!
