    Spiders and I have an agreement: don’t spin webs at people height. Spiders get the corners, ceilings and anywhere we don’t walk. If you try to spin a web on the bananas, RIP.

      As long as the size doesn’t bug you, you’d probably enjoy huntsman spiders. They prefer eating other insects and even other spiders, and generally leave people alone, even run away from us. They dont spin webs, they eat any bug they can get, including venomous insects. They love eating mosquitoes and cockroachs. If for some reason you feel like attacking one, dont, not only are they helpful, they can jump quite a distance and are faster than you at their peak speed.

        That’s a no from me dog. If I saw that in my house, I’d move. As in, move fast to the door and never look back. He can have the house, and all my shit. I’m taking my dog and getting the fuck out of dodge.

        This is why I love jumping spiders.

        I’d be terrified of a huntsmen spider, but I love jumping spiders i leave them be whenever I see them, knowing that they will snack on all the fruit flies, moths, and mosquitoes that make it into my house.
