My Spider

She lives under the downstairs toilet. The one we don't use very often. 
She spins her web and deposits her leftovers on the floor underneath.
She's small - takes up very little space. She's unobtrusive, even shy.
Her luncheon carcasses are even smaller. Tiny gnats (I'm not sure how they get in there).

This week dear friends are coming to visit and use that toilet. 
What do I do with my spider?
I can't expect them to find her dinner exciting ("ooh, you feasted today!").
Nor can I demand they accept her company.

She must go. Will she like the shrubs out front?
