that's probably a good thing.
you shouldn't kill things unless you are going to consume them or if they present a danger to you.. that's my stance on it
it should be based relative to your survival.
rationalize your spider murder like this: it could have been poisonous because i'm pretty sure you're not gonna eat it.

My friend swatted a bunch of flies one night, then a few minutes later smoked a large dose of DMT. Then a bunch of angry fly spirits attacked him, and it turned all hellish for him haha.
(then he ended up travelling inside a comet at insane speeds talking to discarnate entities)
P.S. I don't kill anything unless I feel seriously physically threatened, can't stand to watch anything get killed either. Yet, my father was a butcher for 10 years...and now I'm vegan.

Yea...I feel pretty tough after killing a spider too. Like the 2nd reply said, its for sure an instinct. It can be poisonous, therefore its a threat, either eliminate the threat or run away from the threat. I say you did good.

You can easily make a homemade and humane mouse trap.
Simply get an empty plastic garbage can with smooth edges. Put some food at the bottom to attract the mouse. Place the garbage can against something that the mouse has access to. ie, a couch. The mouse will fall into the can going after the food and be trapped.

Around autumn I on occasion encounter the Giant House Spider on my walls.

There is nothing itsy bitsy about a spider thats typically 2-3 inches across with a body the size of a bumblebee. The one in the pic I'd consider smallish compared to some.
I don't mind the odd little spider as they're useful beasts, but I draw the line at Tegenaria duellica. Always showing up when you least expect them, close by, huge, and heading towards you or even rearing its front legs aggressively.
BASTARD!! I'LL END YOU!!!!11!

Nope 
There are two good things about Giant House Spiders. Firstly, for North Americans, GHS are a good spider to be infested with, as they will simply eat any hobo spiders (which are poisonous) they encounter.
The other good thing about them is that they often freeze up when discovered as if waiting for reincarnation to strike, and with me it often does 
They also are the fastest spider in the world if they do make a run for it.
The biggest of these I saw in a hospital corridor once, it was almost 4 inches across. I just stood there in awe while the spider counted on not having been seen, allowing me to study it for over a minute before at once dashing into a crack in the wall.
I like tarantulas and I don't mind small domestic spiders, but GHS manage to get on my bad side every time. Bad childhood memories perhaps. Someone once told me he woke up with one of these in his mouth

fuck that! all spiders i see will die by my hand. fuck them all. what the hell is all this lame shit i'm hearing about only killing a spider if you're in mortal danger? hahaha...screw that. the possibility of being bitten is quite enough for me to justify it's demise.

I was just wondering, how big is the chance that a spider (types that generally creep around the house) actually bites you when you catch it by hand?

i don't really know, but i'd think the chance would be pretty good since it's the spider's instinctive reaction to bite when threatened.
just scoop it into a cup if you must be so humane to every spider you see, or endure a painful irritating spider bite from time to time.

In Holland there are no dangerous spiders as far as I know. If you are used to handling tarantulas you could probably handle most domestic spiders, but if you go about it slightly wrongly theres a good chance they'll attempt to bite you.
Those Giant House Spiders will actually raise their forelimbs in an aggressive pose at you.

You guys haven't experienced terror until you've been face to face with the CAMEL CRICKET! Dun dun dunnnnnnnnnnnn...

This beast crawled out of satan's ass and ascended from hell and is NOT fun to have in your house. First of all, they're ugly as fuck and will just perch sideways on a wall staring at you, giving you creepy vibes the whole time you're in the room with "it". Second, these bastards jump...HIGH. I've seen them reach my eye level and I'm nearly 6'2"! Third, and by far the worst of all, if you try to kill one they don't try to jump away from you and make an escape. THESE MOTHERFUCKERS JUMP TOWARD YOU! Usually landing on your clothes and prompting a few frantic moments of mad swatting and girly screams. It's like they know they scare you!
Fuckin' camel crickets

Yeah, what the shit is up with those things? They know they have the upper hand over you and that humans are scared of them. Bugs don't usually bother me but this things are in a whole different league. Ever try to kill one of them? They don't have any of it and really give you a run for your money. It's like they have nothing to lose...totally fearless.
Mikeytro, try and kill one of those things and I guarantee you will REALLY feel like a pussy. Guaranteed you'll be locked in a battle of wits with a creature 1/1000 your size and it'll make you flee from the room in terror squealing like a schoolgirl.
I've lost many battles against this beast.
