Spiders keep the bugs out
That's why I don't clean all the webs on my front porch, totally not because I'm lazy. Whenever I get unsolicited visits from pest control companies, I see their eyes roaming around my front porch as they do their sales pitch, excited to point out all the "pests" in my house.
Of course a pest control salesman would look at natural pest control as a pest.
We get those folks sometimes. I'm always like "what pests? we have no pest problems. go away."
I don't remove webs. I'm not from Australia, so spiders are harmless here and might even catch a fly or two.
I left a few, very tiny, jumping spider webs around my kitchen light. Saw one nail a bug and drag it behind a picture in the bathroom!
I'm from Australia and do the same thing. I don't seem to ever see the poisonous ones.
Well that's because they don't like you! You're not well liked in the spider community. You wouldn't like it if some astroid fell down and destroyed your home, and took away all your food.
So now spiders don't invite you to their raves, and Spiderman won't save you. And he'll even save J Jonah Jameson. Admittedly begrudgingly so.
Oh wow. What did they do to upset the spiders that much?

My name is Inigo "Bogan" Montoya, the spider...
You killed my brother, prepare to die...
i remove them from walkways but not windows. i have a deal with the spiders: 1: stay out of my bathroom and 2: don't jump at me ever when i'm naked, and then the spiders may live and eat the bugs i can't see.
I remove cobwebs. The cellar spiders make them then leave as I understand it.
I was fiercely guarding an orb weavers web for a while on my patio, she was beautiful. It’s gone now and I doing know where she moved.
I take down the dusty old ones that aren’t useful anymore. Especially if they are all full of bug remains. I call those the “pizzas boxes” and gently criticize my ceiling spiders for not minding their messes as I tidy up and make space for fresh, clean, sticky webs.
I don't take them down in nature unless they're blocking the trail. I twirl them up on a twig and yeet 'em to the side. A face full of 4"-wide banana spider female is just too much.
Didn't remove one last week because I could duck a little. Guess who forgot to duck on the way back. Take a wild guess.
I got a face full of web recently because I wasn't paying attention and it was dark. Didn't get mad, it was my fault, even said I was sorry to the spider who jumped away. But it takes a bit to get over that feeling.
Was it Batman? I hear he's blind as Ray Charles.
I didn't know Ray Charles had sonar...
Guess who forgot to duck on the way back. Take a wild guess.
Was it Greg? I bet it was Greg...
again? Fucking greg!
Damn it, Greg!
Greg has those creepy tiny teeth.
"I reject your ~~reality~~ spider web, and substitute it with my own!"
