Moved around a bunch of stuff in what we call "The Back Room" in the basement and found a huge nest of Brown Spiders.
Happy, happy, joy, joy.

~Youve got to be a pussy to be scared of spiders. Well unless theyre huge ones.
There's this thing called Arachnophobia, I myself suffer from it. More like pussyphobia lol. JK, i don't like them either, but I don't have a fear of them. They just weird me out slightly.

I guess it was hard to tell from that picture in the OP just how big they are. But to me, it ain't just size but how crazy looking they are. Bugs can get pretty gnarly, man. Gotta recognize.

Whoa dude. I have always been a "live and let live" kind of a guy, but the looks of that thing give me the heeby jeebies. I would not hold anything against you for doing whatever you need to do to address this...

All the skeptics will now want to stomp every spider they see, when they view this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aNHK565cVe8
that's a tough one. at first, my gut reaction was -- find a way to remove them whilst still saving them. but that is tough one. i'm not sure what the options are, but the prospect of infestation is pretty scary, even if they aren't deadly.
wish i could be more help in deciding. good luck!

+1 Thats it man! Go get a little spider doll and spin it in circles until they fall off the window sill from bieng dizzy, scoop em up and send em down the street

Before killing any spiders you should think about the big number of insects that is consumed by even a single spider. Without spiders humanity would be plagued with hoards of insects.
All spiders in central Europe are not really dangerous for humans - the vast majority of them can't even bite through human skin. A tennis ball size swelling from a such a spider is definitely a myth. I've handled quite a few spiders and have never been bitten - not even an attempted bite.
You don't have to love them, but please don't kill them.

"the vast majority of them can't even bite through human skin"
That's bullshit. Almost all spider bites can easily bypass a human's skill.
"tennis ball size swelling from a such a spider is definitely a myth"
Again, bullshit. Ever heard of staph infection? It can be caused via a spider bite. (Technically, any sort of puncture to the skin, but spider bites are common enough).
Then again, I probably wouldn't kill the spider, as I'm sure it'll catch a wasp or two around these parts making it worth my while. (I much rather get bit by a spider than stung by a wasp).
Dont kill it, it will be summer soon remember that will bring alot of mosquitoes to your room.
And then mister spider will eat them!
I dont understand why alot of people are scared for such little animals, especially some girls .

So what are you doing about them?
Still undecided right now.
I do have both false widows and lace weavers spiders.
I think most here would nuke the house if they had too many and they became pests, im not sure i have too many adults right now but i will by the time the babies outside get big no doubt. This is posing me a moral dilemma, i gave up killing animals years ago.
I have this image of you standing at the window contemplating what to do, just catch em up, and pass the buck to someone else like I had said before

Had another one crawling up the bath today, apparently they are amaurobius spiders not false widows. however both the bastards can bite you but not usually aggressive.
lots of votes to kill the spiders though i see :/
As much as people say they do not harm, they can get very annoying. I used to have a spider in the toilet, you keep having the feeling this guy is always watching.
Put sulfuric acid/gas in your house, they do not like this kind of stuff and will leave the house, gasses is probably the most friendly way.

I'd keep em alive unless they started biting! otherwise I'd probably just try to catch em and throw them out
