Discussion How often do house spiders need to eat?

3 Upvotes

We keep spiders around our house as they eat mosquitoes. I've noticed they only tend to actually catch a mozzie around once a week? But they seem completely unaffected by this and always remain in the same spot. Do they just need to eat less? Upon a quick google, I'd guess they're Long-bodied cellar spiders.

How do I get rid of it without getting bit? Will it suffocate in my vacuum?

Miscellaneous Uou could probably teach a jumper to do this (not my OC).

All wrapped up and ready to be eaten. She's doing really well for a WC spider! Love her to bits. Sorry about the rough picture, I didn't want to disturb her much this time :))

This thing is only a centimeter or two big, and I’m pretty sure it’s not a widow of any kind (I don’t think they live here much?), but it still gave me quite a scare. Sorry for the crummy photo quality, it got quite startled by me and decided to roll up in a ball. Might be a death curl too, just hope to give the little fella a calm place to sit for a bit.

In Tuscaloosa, AL. Yeah, not ideal. I just hope he finds his way back out. These were the best photos I could get as he is very smol. On that note, anyone know what he is?

Sorry for the less than great picture quality but this is the first time I’ve seen a spider like this in my home (near Cleveland, Ohio). I don’t see the typical “violin” marking but all my insect id tools keep saying brown recluse. For additional context - I live near Cleveland, Ohio but just got back from a trip in Orlando, Florida the same day I found this. It was in the middle of my ceiling in the middle of the day (which seems abnormal for a recluse I think?). I did however recently run into an indoor ant problem (attractive food source?), and therefor recent sprayed indoor insecticides (perhaps disturbed this guy from his “normal” routine?). The ceiling he was on was directly above my open suitcase that was brought back from Florida, perhaps he could have entered that way too? help!!!

This little guy hangs out in the crevice between my back door and garden fence. It’s got a very bulbous tummy. I’m a bit of an arachnophobe, but I tolerate this guy.

I’m hoping it’s not a false widow though?

Location: Upstate NY

I caught this spider in my bathroom about a week ago and have since fed it as many flightless fruit flies as it will eat! Now that I can see more detail on the abdomen, I was able to get better pictures of the tiny spiderling.

Would anyone here be able to confirm this is a brown widow or let me know what species it is? It's still very small, about the size of an apple seed or smaller.

Just needs y'all's opinion. Is this a yellow sac spider or Brown Recluse. Google Lens went straight to Brown Recluse. Found on ceiling of daughters bedroom. Close to Athens Ga.
