Thank you for that insight! Did the same spider live all that time? Figured their life span was much shorter.

No but each one lives about 3 years with good care. Since they are literally everywhere except the north and south poles, they were easy to find around the school building. A kindergarten teacher had me paged one day when she recognized one crawling across the floor!! Interestingly, no one in all those years was ever bitten. That’s the potential vs actual threat demonstration.

Wow, that's way longer than my bathroom buddies last. Think the cats might have something to do with it. My wife understands and is okay with it - she's put up with me for 50 years...
