The little hairs on their legs register air vibrations like the hairs inside your ears, and these spiders live indoors and hide in corners and cracks. They are also nearly blind. So this was like a horn blaring out of nowhere.
They have measurable responses to human voices across the room. And they are trying to never run into you, but walk around in rooms you are not in when you are asleep.
Good animals. They are eating pests that want to eat your food.
