Comment on Why do you still look worried?

This is the problem with when scientists declare a think extinct. They can’t prove it’s gone. They can sample and say “we haven’t seen one in a while, we think they’re gone”.
It’s the same with spider infestation. I’d you have seen one for a while, you can declare it’s resolved, but you’re never really sure.
PS spiders are better than bedbugs. A former employer I was at had a bedbug problem. That sucked for people in that office.

So what you're saying is that we should just burn it all to the ground? Let me get my napalm real quick.

It’s the only way to know for sure.
If you want to live in absolutes. Yes, but then you’ll want to irradiate the area to get any surviving spiders that were hidden underground.

You want giant radioactive spiders? 'Cause that’s how you get giant radioactive spiders.
