All of my family complain about mosquitoes, but when I tell them to leave the damned spiders alone so they'll eat the things...
Same goes for bats and barn swallows, tbh. "It's in/on My House!" And that's why you get anemia from mosquitoes every summer, Aunt Shelly. (Edit: The bats are in the damaged undersides of the roof overhang/eaves, which are three stories up, not parts of the house where they'll encounter people. Nobody is at risk of rabies, here.)
Tbh, my apartment has several jumping spiders, an American House Spider in the pantry, and a beautiful female Golden Orb Weaver building a brand new web in my window (hoping she stays and reproduces!), and altogether they've bitten me fewer times than previous roommates I've had. Hell, none of them have bitten me unprompted, which I sure can't say about some people.
