Spiders like the garden orb weavers, argiopes, widow varieties that only live one season, will die in Winter, leaving behind their egg sac for the next season. Other spiders like tarantulas and fishing spiders, that live longer may hibernate in Winter spending the cold weather under tree bark or rocks, or in cellars and attics. Some adults survive by preparing a winter nest of silken webbing under loose bark within which they are insulated from the cold. In several species, young spiderlings hatch out, then remain in a communal webbed egg sac through the winter. Those spiders that hibernate in leaf litter and in rock piles often are not deeply asleep, and on mild winter days may crawl about in search of insect food that is plentiful and easy to secure in its dormant state. Young spiders often take refuge in moss, and should you bring a clump into the house, be prepared to have spiderlings and many other little hibernating creatures crawl out as warmth unlocks their muscles and increases their metabolism and consumption of oxygen.
Black widow spiders normally only live for a single year but can survive for up to 3 years if kept in captivity. Although spiders do not truly hibernate, they do respond to temperature, becoming dormant and even freezing when the climate becomes cold. However, as they only survive for a year in the wild, the cold temperature does not really become an issue.
If the spider is being kept as a pet, and exhibiting hibernation-like qualities, it may either be that it has reached a the end of its life or is being kept in an environment that is too cold. It may be best to contact a vet or other professional if you are worried about the health of your spider.
Yes, as I have just discovered, they do. I have a web spinner living in my window. I got an email while I was away for two months saying that she had passed away. Upon my return I touched what I supposed was her carcass and she moved. right now she just appears to be in a deep months long sleep within a nook in my window.
