Do you squish spiders when they see them indoors or trap the eight-legged insects and release them outside? Is this outdoor relocation an act of kindness, or a death sentence for the spider? If the spider is native to the area then it will likely be able to survive outside, but if the spider is a transplant it will likely perish outside because spiders are adapted to specific humidity and temperatures. Apparently even species that are moved from one climate to a comparable one seem to have trouble. So if you see a spider tiptoe across your bedroom move it to another part of your house where you don’t mind spiders, such as the car garage. If you want to see fewer spiders indoors fill the gaps and cracks in your house with caulk or weather stripping.
