Why the Hell did the Spiders decide to choose my house?

Wyróżnienie
I feel both excitement and revulsion when I see a big fat house spider scuttling across my carpet. The previous year one had set up its home in the corner of my bedroom - I fed it a cranefly as a housewarming gift and it devoured the poor creature happily. The next day only its legs remained.

Most of the time I just have cellar spiders sitting around.
 
I think I've seen similar looking spiders. Should be harmless. If needed get a Praying Mantis if it keeps bothering you. They eat spiders sometimes.
 
I usually have several in the house at one time and they all seem to be jumping spiders. Which is fine for me, they help with any fungus gnats that come in on new plants from the nursery purchases that come in through the door.

I can deal with little spiders. It's those huge, unearthly looking spiders that make me scream. I'm not talking about the ones that are like the size of a half dollar coin (which is already bad enough), I'm talking about the ones that live under your house and become bigger than your hand.

I have no idea what their actual name is, out here any big ass spider that isn't a banana spider, brown recluse, or black widow is just called a grass spider. I was helping my neighbor repair her deck and I cannot believe how big grass spiders can get. I swear we had spiders that would be in the world record books if not for the fact that we killed them right away due to fear.
 
I've got a rather large (but not like weird Australian large) spider that lived in my bathroom on the ceiling for a year or two. He wasn't hurting anything and ate the flies that kept getting in through the window screen so he was cool to have around.

He stayed in his corner of the ceiling and did his thing so I left him there.
 
Spiders eat more meat than humans do. Point a torch at the ground and all those glistening spots will be spiders. They are everywhere.

I'd vacuum them up if you see them, they're probably looking for winter quarters rather than actually eating any kind of insects. Sac spiders are my only no-go spider because they have a bad habit of crawling around unexpectedly and aren't afraid to crawl on you.
