here in fl two banana spiders egg sacs hatched right next to each other an about 1000+ slings popped out... They stayed there for about a week and I saw them one day and literally the next day they were ALL gone.. It was quite interesting..

I would still try and put them back. Perhaps you can rig something to give them some added protection from the elements without blocking their path when they emerge? Like maybe put them in a little hammock inside an upside-down plastic cup hung from a branch or some such thing?
