They don’t scare you enough? Imagine them as Eldritch abominations.

While I know they’re harmless that has not stopped from committing war crimes against one that found its way to my shower.

Limousine spider.

They also appear to be smart, aggressive, and territorial. I have been chased by several. And I have run away with great haste.

Odd, I’ve had several in my room in my last place, but they didn’t seem territorial or aggressive to humans. Sometimes too close I’d worry I’d hurt it but other than that…

I would far rather the spiders in my house eat these things.

A house centipede is just 4 spiders in a trench coat.

I don’t think they can. Once a centipede is of decent size I think it’s much stronger than the average house Spider. Australia notwithstanding.

Can confirm that our house spiders are pretty tough. A car ran off the road and into the front wall of my house spider last year and it barely left a mark. We still live here.
