After seeing the new pics with 2 spiders... I'd get rid of them before they hatch thousands of little ones that crawl into your house.

Crap if I saw that on my wall I wouldn't be able to sleep in that room again

"honey, get the kids we're moving RIGHT NOW!"



LMAO, youve seen Arachnophobia too many times! Spiders cant screech tho can they? Please tell me they cant? :Q

Just let them be? Most of the offspring will be eaten by other predators long before they have a chance to mature. Spiders hardly ever have population booms, so in all likelihood any offspring that make it to adulthood will just be the replacement rate. Maybe one of the offspring will make a web for you in the same place next year.

i wouldn't mind having 2 or 3 webs up there, getting bugs from all sides
