Yes nursery web Spiders do make webs. They create a type of web called a nursery web. This web is also known as a garden spider web because of its garden-like pattern and resemblance to a garden. The web is made up of an outer rim of non-sticky threads and a dome of extremely sticky threads. Nursery web spiders use their webs to capture prey such as flies and mosquitoes as well as to protect their eggs.

Nursery web spiders build their webs in the following way:

  • The spider first creates an outer rim of non-sticky threads.
  • The spider then creates a dome of extremely sticky threads.
  • The spider builds a retreat space within the dome.
  • The spider places its egg sac in the retreat space.
  • The spider repairs and maintains its web on a regular basis.

Nursery web spiders webs are an important part of their lifestyle as they use them to capture prey protect their eggs and provide a safe space for them to live in.

No. They do not prefer any compass direction. Some spiders make webs that face up. Many spiders make webs near to porch lights because these lights attract insects.

Why don't hunting spiders make webs?

Well spiders that make webs only make the webs so that they can catch food; I'm presuming by 'hunting spiders' you mean spiders that kill in limb to limb action and/or biting/venom - these spiders kill stuff themselves and so don't need a web to survive... Survival of the fittest and shiz! Yeah that's just my opinion, but technically all spiders are hunters since they eat other animals ;)

Are food web woven by spiders and caterpillars?

Interestingly enough, webs are made by both caterpillars and spiders. Tent caterpillars create web-like nests in trees that resemble tents.

These are typically closer to the shape most often associated with webs. Most spider use their webs to trap their prey and eat.

How do spiders make webs?

A spider web is made of silk. Spiders have what is called spinneret glands. These glands produce the silk spiders use when they construct their webs and are located on the abdomen, usually on the bottom. The silk is very light as needed for the wind to carry it. Spiders can make sticky and nonsticky silk. The spider knows how to use both to build the most sturdy web possible. Spiders are careful when constructing webs to make it possible to stay on the parts that are not sticky to prevent themselves from becoming glued to their own web.
