Spiders

Its been a couple years since I've lived in a basement room, I'd forgotten one tiny problem with spaces in the basement.

Spiders.

Ever since I moved in here, I've been seeing spiders all the time. I don't like squishing bugs so I've had to come up with another way of protecting myself from them.


Tonight I was just tidying up around my room when I saw a spider sitting not so far away from another one that I had trapped. I quickly picked up the cup and covered the second spider. Once it dies, I'll vacuum them both up.


What do you do when you spiders in your house?
Does anyone have a better way?
