Spider!

We have 4 of the same type of spider on our front porch that we just noticed last night. One is really big and the other 3 are smaller versions. They have these really cool white stripes on their legs and they are completely feaking the kids out and making me itch just a bit too. I know they probably eat something else that I don’t want around the house, but do we try to relocate them or just let them stay? What would you do?

BTW, we have one by the door at work too that scared me this morning on the way in. Do you know what kind of spider it is?
