Might I suggest an alternative?
Do nothing.
Relocate them outside, if absolutely necessary. But avoid traps and sprays which kill them.
We don’t have any species of spiders here which are remotely dangerous. Even recent research regarding the hobo spider seems to indicate that it is relatively harmless.
Spiders eat a lot of the pests that come out during the warmer months. Think of them as your anti-insect bodyguards; your very own Secret Service protecting you from mosquitoes which could potentially the carry West Nile virus!
