Off topic... but, I learned in MG classes that the little jumping spider is
our friend inside. I've always tossed them outside, but apparently they eat
the cob web causing spiders. Since leaving them inside for the last several
years it has really cut down on my cleaning of the ceiling immensely! Not
to mention they're kind of cute with their fuzzy faces, verses the long
legged naked ones. ;-) ~ jan

Beware of eliminating the spiders you have! The Black Widows and
Brown recluse may move in!
