No...Spiders cannot sense fear. Spiders do not have a sense of smell or emotional response. What they do sense is the jerky rapid movements that people who are afraid of them make. I work with tarantulas and I tell people that no matter how afraid they are, if they don't make sudden jerky movements then the tarantula will not run or act erratically. It works every time, I have people who are so terrified of tarantulas that they are shaking, but as long as they hold still, the tarantula is calm and does not make sudden movements

Most spiders are afraid of humans and if given the chance they will run away. Many will only attack if they feel threatened.

Do spiders poop?

No, spiders do not "poop" in the same sense that we humans do. You see, when spiders need to emmit their waste they combine the "urine" and the solid "feces" and it comes out as a solid waste. I suppose in a certain sense they do, but that is applying the term very loosely. Dude, if you mean spiders, yes, hey do. And for future reference, anything living poops.
