If I had a massive spider infestation, yeah, I'd want to investigate. But fruit flies and mosquitoes come and go often enough anyway. Presumably enough to sustain one or two spiders.

Had a bit of a gnat (I guess?) problem last summer because they're small enough to get through my window screens. Made me crazy, but even then I don't think they were actually nesting in my home.
