They’re actually pretty beneficial (eating other more annoying bugs and all that) and usually not harmful to human residents in any way (except if you live in Australia). Killing them because “aah yuck spiders!” isn’t a good enough reason to many
I didn’t honestly even think about that. Being from the nordics means throwing them outside is the same as killing them most of the year and keeping them all out is kinda impossible, they’ll find their way in because outside is cold
I’m calling it now, some dissertation in the future will be written on spiderbro’s place in contemporary culture as an expression of acceptance of widespread low home quality. Further exacerbated by a generally low competency in home maintenance, and more importantly a huge renting class with feckless do-nothing-right landlords and limited/unclear permissions to take the issue in their own hands.

unless you hermetically seal your house, bugs will get in, if they want in.
Some small bugs will get through fine mesh.
Open doors and windows let a lot of things in.
But fucked up gappy houses let everything in all the time. You’ve spent your whole life living in fucked up gappy houses, I’m guessing.
Yeah most new construction is terrible and a lot of older homes need extensive work that people can’t afford.
