Every spider you let live will kill and eat about a thousand other bugs in a year

So I guess if she's happy those other thousand bugs will now live long, fruitful and reproductive lives, that's a good thing.

(Old Woman is in the same place as Mrs Tricky. I lose this argument with her every year. She has agreed to let me put them outside rather than kill them though.)
