Spiders?

I don't think I've ever killed a spider...the last time I saw any, there were hundreds of tiny ones in a gigantic, practically invisible web within inches of my elbow. I, um, moved away a little--just to give them their space, you know.

I watched my mother kill a black widow once, and even though I knew they were very poisonous, there was still something kind of tragic about it. I'd gladly squish a centipede or a cockroach, but a spider...a non-poisonous one, definitely not. A poisonous one, I can see myself hesitating, but I guess it would be better to deal with it.
