    Its simple. Every day, drive your truck and the spiders and its web gets blown away onto some random highyway or city street.

    Be a man :)

    So there is a type of pesticide i use. I live out in the mountains, and we get nasty spiders (brown recluse, black widow) huge spiders, you name it. The stuff I use is really unsafe for anything when its wet, use a respirator, and full clothing/ googles. If you have pets, dont let them out until its dry. Once its dry you can eat off it, they use it in industrial kitchens. Its called Talstar P. I spray it all over our home, door ways, my parking area, everywhere. Works for about 3-4 weeks.

    You could install several Wasp nests in and around your truck. Make sure they're parasitic, or at least able to prey on the spiders making the webs. I think the spider would find a less dangerous environment to set it's traps pretty quickly.

    Or, if you parked underwater they'd have a hard time making webs. They'd probably make them when you're at work though. Unless you park underwater at work.

    Lastly, you could burn the entire truck to the ground. It's unlikely the spider would waste time constructing webs while the truck is on fire.

    Good luck!

    Dammit! We forgot about aquatic spiders! It’s easy actually like @foodforbears said start with wasps. Once wasps get out of control bring in frogs to eat the wasps. Then bring in snakes to eat the frogs then bring in eagles to eat snakes. Then bam! You have a freaking eagle! How much more badass does it get!

    I’m pretty arachnophobic. Don’t like the sum bitches one bit.

    One time I was about to back out of the driveway when I looked at the side view mirror I saw something green sticking out of the back of the mirror. It look like a leaf stem or small piece of twig so I grabbed it to yank it out but imagine my surprise when it didn’t come out and actually seemed to pull back. It was about then that it clicked in my head that it was actually leg attached to the rest of the spider - and I was yanking on it! I let go of that thing like I’d just grabbed a live wire. To this day I don’t even like telling the story.

    Another time years ago, me and a buddy who is equally afflicted with the issue but won’t admit it, were tooling down the road in his single cab Chevy, on the way to a lake to do a little fishing. We were jamming out with a little Metallica, when all of a sudden out of one of the vents comes crawling a big nasty ass black spider. I didn't even think about it. I just acted out of instinct, fear and loathing, recoiled back and came down as hard as I could with my heel to crush it, but when I did it went flying right towards us. He almost crashed the truck came skidding to a stop sideways and we both bailed doing the Heebie-Jeebie dance - you all know exactly what I’m talking about.

    Once it finally settled into our pea brains that the thing wasn’t crawling on us with deadly intent, we settled down and tentatively set about to find the stupid thing before we got back on the road - and possibly get ourselves killed again. We finally found it curled up dead on the passenger side floor Matt.

    We still laugh about it to this day and Yes, I’m a pussy when it comes spiders...

    I saw one of those things while fly fishing once. It come up out of the water and onto a rock then went back in the brook again. It was huge, like something out of a freakin nightmare. Made me think twice about flipping over rocks to see what was hatching.

    Ok add fishing to the list of dangerous things! I would care less about a bear but if a aquatic spider appears I’d disappear!
