My stepdad used to tell me about “spider karma” when I was little. Basically, all spiders are a part of a gang, and if you squash one they’ll just think he must’ve stepped out of line or something. However if you squash 3 or more, the spiders will all start talking to each other and plan out attacks on you when you’re most vulnerable. Sleep attacks are the most common, but occasionally they’ll get so pissed they choose to hide in a jacket or shoe and sacrifice everything just to inflict a little pain and terror for killing their mums or siblings.

I used to actually believe this btw.

Edit: why the downvotes to OP? home maintenance is always the best method for keeping pests out. No need for spiders indoors if ya dont have bugs indoors!

Listen, all I’m saying is that I’m not 100% sure I’d exist if I didn’t believe in spider karma. Better safe than sorry, especially when it costs you nothing.

Judging by all the spiders I’ve killed at this point in my life I’m probably on the most wanted (non-exterminator) board LMAO

“Termination on sight”, being seen in my house is the reason, I leave them alone if they’re outside and away from entrances

If it moves, kill it. It applies to spiders, millipede, mimics…etc

I just remember the very 2007-ish inverse of this: Look out for your local spider gang, and they’ll look out for you. XD

Spiders are the bugs I have a problem with XD

(Preemptive) Stow your prescriptivist semantics, pendants! Spiders are bugs because I say so

Yeah in theory I would love to not kill them, or even relocate outside. But once I see one, it’s fight or flight

And I just saved one in yours. I expect for it to come back with his wife and gadzillion kids, making you unable to outweigh the spider I saved with ones that you kill.

Unfortunately, there are no more spiders in my immediate vicinity to kill in your name. Don’t worry! You’re on the wait-list!
