I have always been the one that says, "if a spider comes in the house it must die." So where did that way of thinking go over the past few months? I went into the guest bathroom and there was a large-ish spider sitting next to something heavy. I mashed the spider as I always do. (See opening statement) Well, a few weeks went past and I again went into the guest bath and found 2 tiny spiders sitting near where I had murdered the bigger one. This time something strange happened. I felt a weird sense of compassion for these 2 babies! I let them live. I even look for them every time I enter the guest bath! Are they still alive? What in the world are they eating? What about some water? How are they getting any water? They never move more than 3 inches from the original place that they showed up in! Then I think, WOW! I wish I could sit my kid down and say "stay in this spot!" ~and they do! For months!! I was thinking about putting them outside to be able to find food and water, but then I thought that that would be bad as my chickens all free range and surely they would pick these 2 right off! Well, I need to redo the bathroom floor and I will need to move the baby spiders. Now I am thinking that maybe they can be rehomed. Should I put them on craigslist? Should I ask for a rehoming fee?? What kind of life would they have outside of my guest bath anyway.... There are many dangers to a tiny spider. Even a cold night could do them in! Maybe I will set up a terrarium for them and keep them safely in the guest bath. That sounds like the most logical idea. It's a win-win! I will post pics of their new home when it is finished!
