It would be highly unlikely that spiders would crawl into a person's mouth or nose while they sleeping. For one thing we move around a lot while we are sleeping and this would deter a spider from even crawling on you, let alone enter any orifice, especially one which is wet and dark. Breathing through your mouth or nose would also deter a spider from entering and most house spiders are too big to fit into a nose in any case. Spiders, like virtually all arthropods, flee from breath. After all, there are lots of vertebrates that eat arthropods, and if you're an arthropod and something is breathing on you, it's not a good idea to stick around.....

This would vary according to how spider friendly your area is. Oh what the hell who am I kidding? I don't think anyone has done any systematic research on the matter. It would be interesting to find out though. Start a diary and record how many times you wake up with that crunchy spiderey taste in your mouth and convince others to do likewise and in no time at all you will have a survey

From personal experience, none so far, and I'm turning 40 this year. However, I won't say the same about those annoying little fruit flies that seem to get into everything and possibly what wakes me up with spasms of coughing fits when they land on my gag muscle (well.. that's what I call it) at the back of my throat.
We're more likely to eat countless spiders by munching on a bar of pure chocolate. Something to do with how the cocoa beans are cleaned then put through the machinery that grounds them for chocolate. Spiders will often get caught up in amongst the cocoa beans... who says you can't get protein from chocolate! :-)

I don't think anyone "is think so much" like the guy above me says. but it would depend on how spider friendly the area is... e.g. florida would have more than alaska. and also if you sleep with your mouth open or not.

The answer 27 is incorrect. The correct answer is 29. Everyone knows that.
