Spiders are creepy but they're not bad either. Get rid of flies and mosquitos

This advice may not apply to Australia but in general, it's true.

Do those giant spiders even make webs?

Actually Huntsman's don't! They're the big hairy brown ones that you've seen carrying mice on social media. They're non-venemous and their whole schtick is that they run to catch their prey. They're incredibly creepy but when I see one I cup+paper it and put it outside. It'll probably find it's way back in eventually but not before taking out a few insects in the process.
