When my cat finds one he meows at it until I inspect it. If it's one that could hurt him I kill it and throw it away. If it's a harmless one I give him permission to eat it by saying "kill" then he plays with it for a bit then eats it.

If they somehow find themselves in my room, I typically leave them alone. Unless they crawl onto my bed; then I kill them. If they're anywhere else in the house, then I try to take them outside when possible.

If I see any insects in my living space I terminate with extreme prejudice. The ones that evolve to stay out of sight better will survive while all the idiots who startle me will die off, leading to successive generations of less-intrusive insects in my home. Spiders get no exemptions.

nah I usually let them be and they find their way out on their own
the only bugs that go bye-bye are roaches or their ilk (or ants if there's more than like 20 of them in one spot)

Usually put them outside. They're good friends to have around the place.

No, spiders are bros. They keep the wall space safe from glowies and the outer walls safe from flies.

No, spiders are frens. I leave them alone. Little buddies.

Nope, never. They kill and eat bugs that I don't want in my house. I welcome opossums, black snakes, and bats to my yard too. Beneficial animals are cool.

No, well I try not to most of the time. One summer I had this spider in the corner of my kitchen I just left it there and the web got bigger. It was really hot that summer and there were a lot of flies and they kept getting trapped in the spider's web. The spider kept getting bigger and bigger. I still just left it there because it was doing a pretty good job as a fly trap. I figured it was probably female because it just kept getting bigger and male spiders are usually smaller so I named it Esmeralda. After a couple of months I started to notice the signs of obesity on her. She rarely moved any more and when she did move she was slow and sluggish where before she had been quick and nimble. Eventually one day around September I notice she wasn't moving any more. She was absolutely bloated and gargantuan by this time from the constant fly feast. I let her fossilize there over the fall and winter as a monument to her service in defense against the various flying vermin that trespassed into my kitchen. When January came around though that's when she had to go into her final resting place at the bottom of a vacuum bag.

Only one rule: If they touch me they die.

And they are lucky that my cat is sometimes too lazy, sometimes too dumb and sometimes too scared to hunt them down.
