Take it easy. You killed a big female who came in from the cold. There may be more around, but spiders don't swarm. As predators, they can only grow to numbers that can be supported by the amount of prey around. You'd need plague numbers of isopods to have even modestly large numbers of woodlouse spider. Also, big as their fangs are, they don't have venom that harms us. An animal like a horse wouldn't even notice them, and a spider has no reason to bite a horse. The only reason humans get bit by spiders is that they get inbetween our clothes and skin.
