I try to not kill them when i clean up excessive webs. Hope they appreciate the clean up and dont resent me for it...

I did the same for a while.
But then I recently found out a spider (which was getting pretty big) ignoring bloodless mosquitoes and letting them fill up on me before eating them. I cleaned it up.
