    Keep the spiders. They are a natural killer of many other bugs. This is just my opinion.

    Hi,
    Here in the Appalachain Mountains (Great Smokey Mountains) of VA, we have more than our fair share of spiders!
    If one doesn't use an insecticide, you will spend you whole summer with a broom, wiping off spider webs, killing small spiders, from underneath the eaves of your house, and from the walls themselves, outside!
    A very good spider killer is RAID, Ant and Roach Killer. Comes in a Red Can.
    The back of the can says it also kills spiders... it does.
    I use one can, spraying all around the outside of my house, spraying only at the ground, and about 3 inches up on the brick itself, all around the house.
    This STOPS the spiders. Have to do it about every 2 months. Works for me.
    Best of luck, and give it a try,, it works.
