How to lure spiders as Webber without attacking the nest

dont-starve

I'm playing as Webber and I want to fight spiders during the day, so I would go up and smack the nest once with my spear to aggro the spiders. I thought this was okay, and that the nest would sort of "auto-repair" itself after a day, but after a few days of doing this the nest actually broke.

So how am I supposed to get the spiders to come out and attack me during the daytime without breaking the nest?

You can build a Pig House near the Spider Den, the pigs will lure out the spiders and will even kill them for you, so you only have to come back every now and then to collect your spider (and pig) loot.

You can also build a Spider Den near some Pig Houses instead to achieve the same thing.

A Pig House can be built with 4 Boards, 3 Cut stone and 4 Pig Skins.

A Spider Den can be built with 12 Silk, 6 Spider Glands, and 6 Papyrus.
