I heard, many years ago, that in normal everyday
living circumstances, you are typically less than one
meter from the nearest spider.

Personal anecdote:
My air-conditioner tripped out in the summer, a few years
ago, and a technician guided me to taking off the top of
the external heat-exchanger, and resetting the overload
switch. (And putting the cover back on!)
The number of spiders in that enclosed space was
very, very impressive. The technician and I joked about
them for a moment, and the technician said I could clear
them out if I wished.
I declined, saying that the spiders were dealing with all
sorts of pests that I didn’t want inside my dwelling.
