This spider has taken residence in a corner of one of the rooms, I’m not bothered by them but the web is getting a bit too big… can I just remove part of it to keep the size in check without causing harm to the spider?

    Thanks! It’s a bit difficult to wait for them to move out, since, at least for what I can tell, they never leave the web. I always found the spider in the same spot lol right now they’re keeping around the middle, so I could trim the edges of the web without directly touching the spider, if that’s what you meant!

      As long as you’re careful it should be okay. I’m sure it’ll scare the shit out of them, they may flee if you trim it, but again, worst case is they decide they need to make a new web elsewhere.

      Too bad, I guess it was good real estate!
