    Spiders.

    They protect my plants from gnats and hide out during the day to not disturb or frighten me. Best roommates I’ve ever had.

      So I’m scared of spiders, but if they’re chill I’m chill too. So I just let them be and they usually leave me alone. And I hate it when somebody kills a spider, just want somebody else to take the big ones outside for me :-)

      I’m down with this. I generally leave any spider smaller than a nickel remain where it’s at, and the others are placed lovingly just outside the door.

        I have a rule in my house. Do not kill spiders. Reason: If there is a spider, there is something I don’t want in my house, it is its job to get rid of it. When the food is gone, so is the spider.
