Things my friends put up with, part two.

Sunil: Last night there was a giant spider on my ceiling.
Me: Did it skitter over your face in the night?
Sunil: I HATE YOU.
Sunil: (I considered opening this conversation with, "Seanan, do you promise not to make any characteristically Seanan comments?")
Me: Leg leg leg leg leg leg leg leg...
Me: (That would have been wise, yes.)

I love my friends.

I am engaged in a scientific attempt to communicate with the arthropod world. Since their little bug brains are incapable of understanding my message, I am attempting to communicate with their genome— by providing selection pressure against the ones that have apparently failed to understand my polite request to stay out of my house.

Cleo is helping by hunting them down. If she sees one up on a wall, she will chirp at me until I pick her up and let her stand on the palm of my hand to bap at it.
I think your approach is wise, and utterly respectable.
