Spider infestations are a very binary problem: they are resolved (0 living spiders) or they are not resolved (>0 spiders). Which one is it? So there is greater zero spiders? Then it’s not resolved, Dave! Go take that sign down!
Tbf, that depends on how you define “infestation”.
Maybe to them, it’s a matter of numbers and behaviour, and just one or two spiders chilling in the corner is no big deal.
Maybe it doesn’t become an infestation until there’s 10+ spiders, crawling at various points on and suspended from the ceiling, on the walls, under desks, behind your phone as you read this…
This is the problem with when scientists declare a think extinct. They can’t prove it’s gone. They can sample and say “we haven’t seen one in a while, we think they’re gone”.
It’s the same with spider infestation. I’d you have seen one for a while, you can declare it’s resolved, but you’re never really sure.
PS spiders are better than bedbugs. A former employer I was at had a bedbug problem. That sucked for people in that office.

Thanks Satan
You can’t prove something doesn’t exist.

So what you’re saying is that we should just burn it all to the ground? Got it. Let me get my napalm real quick.
It’s the only way to know for sure.
If you want to live in absolutes. Yes, but then you’ll want to irradiate the area to get any surviving spiders that were hidden underground.
You want giant radioactive spiders? 'Cause that’s how you get giant radioactive spiders.
Ooh, good idea! Now where did I put my Plutonium?
