So real story here, the reason it took so long was that everytime somebody built a house thousands of house spiders would flock in, rendering the house unusable. Then somebody had the bright idea of building a decoy house which also become the first shed.

They were just called Unhoused Spiders back then.

Temporarily Unhoused Spiders

Use your spider-centered language folks!

It should be: Spiders who are temporarily experiencing homelessness.

Folks say they belong in houses and we shouldn't put them outside.

Folks say all sorts of things.

Personally, I’m fine with house spiders as long as they do their job AND don’t start laying eggs indoors.

Don’t nest where you hunt, house spiders. It never ends well.
