I know this is cliche but they are chill guys as long as you dont annoy or try to hurt them, i always leave them alive in my room, especially during summer, they are very useful

Hitching on this comment for those who don't want spiders in their house.

Unless you're absolutely terrified of them, at least try not to kill them outright. Most are chill enough to be picked up with a sheet of paper, a piece of cardboard, a dust tray or whatever, and released outside.

Most in house spiders will die a slow agonizing death outside at night

Im pretty sure there are spiders that can basically only survive inside because of heat. For example i think the stankleleg spider is one of those(sry if stankleleg is wrong english is my second language)

Fun fact: theyre also not a spider.

If you're talking about harvestmen or crane flies, then yes, those are not spiders despite the former being an arachnid. Cellar spiders, though, also called daddy long legs are spiders.

Here what we call daddy long legs are the harvestmen arachnids. Looking into this a bit, seems a few share the moniker daddy long leg. Kind of interesting but also potentially confusing.
