I hate spiders! There are a few things you can do to kill them but not many. Spary your baseboards with white vinegar and water mixed, it smells terrible but it kills the spiders. Also, put moth balls in the corner of your window sills. Do not let the moth balls be on the floor in case you have children or animals. Neither of these remedies smell good but they do work. And yes spiders do have a usefulness, they eat the dust mites you leave behind on your sheets which helps with allergies, they eat house flies which carry many diseases, and they eat some beetles. This doesn't make me like them any more though.

I never kill any of our spiders but if they are the big ones I catch them and put them outside, at least then they get more exercise by having to find their way back in ha!! I guess the only usefulness they have is catching flying insects in their webs??!!?

They kill little bugs that attempt to be around the house.. As the above person said also scaring people is great :) hehehe
