can you kill a spider by sucking them up with a vacuum?
or do they stay alive you think in the bag and crawl back out??

They can crawl back out. I plug the end of the vacuum with a wad of paper towel after I’m done vacuuming so they can’t get out. Works great & I never have to touch those nasty bugs.
sometimes you need to experiment. try this yourself.
I suppose the brush could mash ’em.
Most likely though you just trap ’em in the bag.
Not sure… I think it depends on the spider. One time, I caught a cane spider with the vacuum and it crawled out when i eptyed the container…But when i sucked up the ones with the long legs, it was dead…so I think it depends on the spider.
well ,1st of all what kind of vacuum are we talking about here? is it a car wash vacuum or a simple house one? what kind of spider ? spiderman-like or just a cielling corner spider? you got to be more specific….
Whenever I suck up a spider with a vacuum I find myself awake at night for just a LITTLE bit longer thinking that this might happen!
I usually try to find a really messy spot on the floor to vacuum right after I get the spider. Maybe if I trapped him in the bag/canister and he’s still alive, I can mash him up with more junk that comes through the vacuum!
Eek, I’m getting the heeby jeebies just thinking about it…
