Likely. Headlamps are well known tools for collecting spiders at night, when positioned just right they will reflect off the spider's eyes as you move your head around. It's an amazing thing to see spiders everywhere.

For peace of mind that sounds like the worst tool to use.

Started looking for hidden cameras, ended cowering in fear from the thousands of eyes in the closet.

The ones smart enough to remain unseen are the ones you should worry about.

Just try to remember the spiders protect you from the other bugs.

No thanks. I'll take my army of friendly neighborhood geckos instead.

Can vouch for this having heard the theory and tried the "torch at eye-level" method and been able to zero-in on small spiders from a distance of about 5m.

It's quite amazingly effective, especially the first time, when you're not really convinced.

Thanks for giving me nightmares.
