I like spiders. As long as they're not crawling on me, or inside my house. And even if they're in my house - if they're the mexican jumping spiders, I don't mind them at all, and I let them entertain me by being so colorful and pretty and bopping around the kitchen counter. Haven't seen any of those here in Florida but one of them hitched a ride on my arm when I was driving from CT to NYC one day. I noticed it after I'd gotten as far as Stamford so I just let it be.
The bigger spiders, are not invited into my house, so they will either be squished, or moved outside on a piece of cardboard. Depends on what they look like. When I'm gardening I always apologize to them if I have to disturb their webs and try to work around them when possible. They work hard to make those things!
