If they are outside, I leave them alone but I won't stand for any bugs in the house.
I found the best way to contain and instantly capture any and all bugs (the most annoying for me are gnat infestations) is a powerful vacuum cleaner.
One summer I looked up at the wall beside my computer and saw that the entire top corner was full of hundreds of gnats crawling all over it. They must have just hatched. I was shocked at first and didn't know what to do but I grabbed the vacuum cleaner hose and just waved it all over the wall and sucked every single last bugger up without any effort or mess that might have been created by manually squishing them.
Doesn't matter how fast the spider is, how strong it's spider-man grip is, or how fast a fly's reflexes are. I've found a powerful vacuum will suck them up before they know what hits them. A vacuum hose is also the best tool to clean up pesky webs full of yucky bugs you don't want to think about. Point, close your eyes, hit the switch.
