I encountered one spider (but it was so bad) and a TON of pill bugs! They were scattered throughout the soil as I was pulling out the mint. I wasn't as freaked out as before as I've dealt with roly polies many a times, and I started a new strategy: pull the weeds quickly and stuff them inside the trash bag before I see some bugs or insects. I feel bad for the critters because I'm tearing up their home, but hopefully they'll enjoy the new garden more!
EDIT: So I just found out that pill bugs are actually crustaceans. Who would have known? Here's a link to more fun facts about them.
