To actually see how many spiders live in your garden, take your flashlight out there one night and shine the light into the webs. The spiders' eyes will reflect back as little pinpoints of light. Remember, spiders very rarely bite people. If you are really bothered by them, however, you can put out sticky traps that will catch them along with every other little thing walking around. It's better to leave the spiders alone, though.
Spiders are actually more closely related to lobsters.
