If you really think about it their little legs so fragile I have never checked but I would say yes. Think of our tornados..same effect

Depends on the size of the spider and what kind of filtering you have. If it is a large spider there is a much greater chance that it will be broken into pieces and that could cause death. If you are wondering if the vacuum somehow causes death because of the suction that isn’t going to happen, but the exoskeleton could be crushed. A small spider will probably survive no problem and skitter out when you are emptying the collection container or removing the bag.

no..i don’t think they would die that easily..just hire a cleaning service for the room if your place is completely crawling with spiders..it’s kind of hard to kill them either because they stay in corners of the room..

I wouldn’t think so, but I don’t eliminate them with my vacuum anyway. I use a wet paper towel & smoosh ’em good. ~lol~

some do but not all, I have found if you have a vac without a bag they will but if you have a bag they can live untill their life cycle ends unless you get rid of the bag.

No. They wont die immediately. If you open the dust bag they will escape… tramatized but ok.
