People joke around a lot about burning down the house. Especially on the internet. Too messy? Burn it down. Snake in your toilet? BURN IT DOWN! And, last but not least: spider sighting in the house? Burn it to the ground and never look back. But these are just ... jokes. Turns out, not everyone knows that.
Most humans don't like finding an eight-legged foe in their house.

We try to trap them, to remove them, to kill them.
And 97% of the time* these efforts result in the spider still escaping, followed by us screaming and jumping around spastically.
*Completely made up statistic, but it feels right.
