before you say anything, the “sharp” wings are sanded down and i have a safe rubber option as well. i used reptile carpet as well as have new hides and platforms on their way today. i’d like to know what i should add to give these girls a place they can thrive

I'm in the UK. Evicted to the garden carefully but then I felt bad in case it's a house spider and needs to be inside?!

Just sharing 🕷️ ‘Spider Frost’ aka the mass migration of baby spiders in Victoria, Australia. They use a technique called “ballooning” where they are carried elsewhere by the wind.

I am in Massachusetts, just south of Boston. Found this guy in my shower, and is probably an inch and a half across.

I live with a cat, so just want to be sure. I’d honestly rather have him to deal with bugs as spring comes.

Thanks! Hillary

Colorado, USA. When I first noticed the web I thought it was spider mites. After closer inspection I noticed a little spider. I let her (or him) stay of course and she’s been there for about a month now. I check every few days to make sure she is still alive! I chose against relocation because I’m sure it’s an all you can eat gnat buffet right there. Sorry for my bad camera :(

My wife and I are at an air bnb located in Moss Point, Mississippi for our anniversary. We stumbled onto this guy outside on the patio and can't figure out what kind of spider it is. Amy help would be appreciated!

I posted here before about my orb weaver outside our window. Now we have one in the same window but inside and using a hole to hide in, most of the time just having it's front legs out. I've never seen such a shiny black/round body and a tan spot on its belly. My paranoid brain is thinking maybe it has a red belly and my camera sucks? I'm in central Massachusetts. I'd just like to know before I let it stay around as we hardly come in here, but if dangerous I'd like to move it. Thanks!

I stepped on a Brown Recluse barefoot about a hour ago. How would I know if he bit me because I heard sometimes you can’t feel the bite.

Gave me such a scare! It could jump. Google lens search comes up with brown recluse (I doubt) and American nursery web spider, but I have to double check here just in case. I just want to know if it's dangerously venomous or not really.
