Sounds like you had a recent hatch in your garage. This is time of year for it.
It depends on your risk tolerance. If you have a lot of stuff in your garage that you need to access, I’d probably call a professional.
It there aren’t many hiding places for them, I would just vacuum up the ones that I would likely come into contact with.
I might call a professional. Unfortunately, with our garage, the ceiling is unfinished, which means it has open rafters and plenty of places for them to lay eggs. The tallest point of the ceiling is as high as the roof.
There are some at ground level when I walk out into the garage. Is it possible to vacuum them up? I really don’t want to touch them, or bat at them with a broom. I feel like if I do that, they’ll hit the ground and charge at me, or crawl up the broom.

Widows tend to hang out closer to the ground. I wouldn’t worry much about the rafters.
Darker crevices, debris piles, larger leaning items that go undisturbed for a while.

Vacuuming them probably won’t kill them.
You’ll instead have now-malevolent angry spiders in your vacuum-cleaner.
I happen to consider that to be a Bad Idea…
