I think somewhere earlier in the thread I said that it was unusual for me to be weird about the size of that one wolf spider because I'm normally very spider-friendly. I relocate if they're compatible with the outside world.
I have a different attitude about Yellow Sac spiders because they are dangerous, particularly because I have a curious infant in the house. Their bites are painful and can cause necrosis. We've had a mini-infestation of Yellow Sac spiders in this area for the past couple of years and I don't want to go looking for trouble. I vacuum them up when I see them, then get rid of the vacuum bag. I don't know whether they survive the vacuuming but I know the bold jumping spiders I've vacuumed do, so I picture this sort of spider fight club going on in there.
Anyway, that sort of cold decision favoring your family's welfare is the sort of thing that happens hormonally when you have a kid.
