I just vacuumed a medium sized spider with my Dyson. How long before

The Dyson is bagless so I don’t want to be cleaning out the vacuum and have spiders coming after me with vengeance. Any Dyson engineers out there? Will the heat kill it instantly? The suction?

  1. Hi its Darran at Dyson.

    I am unable to confirm if it will kill the spider but we would recommend emptying the bin over your dustbin outside.

    Kind regards

  2. haha the spiders coming out with vengance. haha sorry i just found that funny. um well i think it should be dead but i am only like 70% sure so just take something like a towel when you open it to squish it.

  3. Don’t be such a delicate little thing.
    Just being battered around with all the other junk the vacuum picks up is likely to kill it.

    Just beware: they charge when they’re wounded!

  4. wow. scary indeed. i would wait a week or fumigate the whole vacuum cleaner in the garage. lol

    i cut a worm in half when i was a little kid and i’ve been deathly afraid of worms ever since. i am certain they are out to get me back for my actions even though i was only four.

    kind of like orca the killer wale. maybe you can get a brave friend to empty it for you.

  5. the suction "could" have killed it but i doubt it, yes they can charge out once you open it and i believe some spiders can go about a week with no food before they die… if its not a brown recluse or black widow it probably wont even try to bite you unless it feels threatened. it was probably just a wolf spider
