Do peacock spiders kill humans?

First of all, although they are horrifying, they are not even spiders at all. They are called wind scorpions. wind scorpions are in the same group of animals as spiders, mites, ticks and true scorpions, but there are several differences between them. They do not carry any venom and could not kill a human. However, it is easy for a camel spider bite to get infected which could later lead to death if left untreated. Mostly, they eat small rodents such as mice, or lizards. They are only called "camel spiders" because they live in the desert, just like camels do and, contrary to popular belief, only can have a body size of up to 6 inches. They legs often can get longer though.

Does a females spiders lay eggs?

Yes they can very easily. Check corners either on the floor or on the ceiling where they could make sturdy webs and you could possibly find an egg sack (it looks like a very small cotton ball about the size of a peanut). Any bug spray will work to kill the eggs but might I suggest, you could relocate the egg sack and the spider outside in a flowerpot or somewhere safe so that the creatures can go on living. Thank you if you choose the latter suggestion, I couldn't bear the thought of killing such harmless creatures.

Can some spiders make a ticking sound?

Yes, as a child I heard them for years at my Mum & Dad's house. It's a very gentle tick-tock for about 20 seconds then pause for about 15 seconds before starting again. I have a different sound in my kitchen - which I can only describe as a fairy snoring. A regular, soft buzzing sound which, like the 'ticking' spiders can be disrupted by hitting the table or wall near to the sound - and I hear it in different parts of my kitchen on different days. Now, clearing mum and Dad's house - in the silence, the ticking spiders are still there, just like they used to be.
