The creature rules on vermin say that they are immune to mind-effecting spells, but also that they breath, eat, and sleep. Why wouldn't sleep effect them? Spider brains, for example, are very different from humans so I can buy them being immune to most mental magic, but they do go through quiescent periods like pretty much all animals. Sleep would make a giant spider encounter I have planned somewhat easier for my PCs, if they happen to have it prepared.
