Hmmm, one spider is dark colored and the other light colored - seems that they've got a serious arachnid problem, but they're doing the right thing.  Pull over to the side of the road and let the hitchhiker out.

But what if there's a bug in your house, wouldn't you want a spider inside to eat it?

I have a cat who eat bugs and even some spiders  he might not be the most clever but at least he's useful

Nah, I can take care of the bugs by myself.

I watched a dog video yesterday. There was a bug in a spiders web trying to get out of it. You could see the small spider a the top that hadn't come down yet. In pops a dog, snatches the bug, spots the spider and nabs it as well.

Maybe instead of eating the spiders, Looping should let the spiders assist him in eating the bugs.

I'd definitely stop setting the alarm. 

@Bill W

Sell or give it to a spider friendly family. Stressing that the snooze button is like new and has never, ever been used and of course that the spiders are included with the deal.

Good luck,

I'm not sure about this one, appears to be another spider want to be. Live and let live, I say.

Nope - six legs, it's a beetle. Lots of black beetles around. Try picture googling Carabidae.

Nope - Nope, six legs and the the two he is standing on(total of eight), it's a spider.

Ahh, yes, I forgot his bottom legs. But the way he's standing, he looks more like a black scorpion.

maybe spare sets of eyes wouldn't be such a bad thing, it they worked better than the first set. 

Nope. Too many eyes 

and too many horrible hairy legs

and a fat hairy body 

…and all the other nightmare stuff

A psychological ploy to confuse those with arachnophobia, but I don't think it's going to work.

Yes they do! However, and please don't take any offense, I take great comfort in knowing that between them and me there is(are) oceans and half the planet, about......

Kilometers: 14150.94 km. / Miles: 8792.99 miles. / Nautical Miles: 7635.83 NM. ✈️ Estimated flight time: 15.51 hours and that really makes my day.

I  think it's time for a meteor strike to seal up the trapdoors.  If it was good enough for the dinosaurs, I think it's good enough to get rid of these critters too.

But spiders made it through the K-T extinction, I'm not sure another meteor strike would help.
