I'm pretty sure the spiders do this on purpose. They see people coming at them, and at the last minute move, FAST.

There are some fast things in the world. But none of them is as fast as a huntsman runninng. Hearing those little hairy feet slamming across the walls as they run is absolutely unreal.

A fly can walk at about 8 kmph. Hunstmen can move at like 20 kmph. So unless its flying around.. yummy..

They aren't web builders tho. We have giant orb spiders that eat birds in webs here..
