Spiders

Spiders belong to the Araneae family. They are part of the Arachnid class, which includes spiders, scorpions, ticks, and mites. Spiders are characterized by having eight legs and producing silk to create webs for catching prey.

There is one plant that eats small bugs and critters, which is the Venus Fly Trap. Other than that, there isn't a plant that eats spiders.

If you're asking how many people die due to spider bites in a year, well... That completely depends on what part of the world. Some places there are zero, some between fifty and one hundred. 110

YES, they do!!!!!

It happened today, I couldn't believe it but I say the whole thing. A white tail ran across the wall and got caught in the daddy long legs web. The daddy long leg ran straight in and bit the white tail before he knew what hit him.

The daddy long leg then stayed at a distance and started putting more and more webs out. The white tail got more and more tangled and eventually paralysed and the daddy long legs wrapped him up.

Tonight I had a look and he is sucking him dry. Mmmmm yum!

I would have never believed it if I never saw it with my own two eyes.

cheers Paul

Yes, spiders do eat mosquitoes. Mosquitoes are part of the diet of many spider species, as they provide a good source of protein for them. Spiders are natural predators that help control insect populations in the ecosystem.

The black dots that appear when typing a password are called "password masking" or "password obfuscation." This security feature is designed to prevent others from seeing the characters you are typing into the password field.

Brown recluse spiders are not commonly found in Maine. They are more commonly found in the southern and central United States. Maine's colder climate and environment are not ideal for brown recluse spiders to thrive.

The insect you are describing is most likely a red velvet ant, which is actually a type of wingless wasp. The black legs in front are often mistaken for antennae, which are absent in this species. The distinct coloration serves as a warning signal to predators that they are venomous.

There are varieties of funnel-web spiders all around the world.

The araneomorph funnel-web spider (the modern funnel-web spider) has been located almost *everywhere*, except the far north and Antarctica.

The venomous funnel-web tarantula has been found in chiefly southern parts of 5 continents -- all except North America and Antarctica. Of these, the Australian funnel-web spider is confined to Australia. Another tarantula, the sheet funnel-web spider, is generally found in the West US and Latin America.

No, brown recluse spiders do not hop. They move by crawling using their eight legs like most spiders.

The description matches that of an orchard orbweaver spider (Leucauge venusta). These spiders have black bodies with bright green triangular markings on their abdomen. They are commonly found in gardens and wooded areas.

Spider veins are generally not life threatening. They are often just a cosmetic concern and do not typically cause serious health problems. However, in some cases, they may be a sign of an underlying vascular issue that may require medical attention.

Funnel-Web Spiders are named for their distinctive funnel-shaped webs that they construct to catch prey. These spiders are known for their aggressive behavior and potent venom, making them one of the most dangerous spiders in the world.

most huntsman spiders live up to to 2 years but they are know to live up to 4. so if you have any huntsman spider eggs in your house those babies are gonna live then breed. interesting fact: huntsman spiders can lay up to 200 eggs.

A widow is a woman whose spouse has passed away, leaving her as a surviving spouse.

The widow spiders, genus Latrodectus (family Theridiidae), are worldwide in distribution. Females range from 8-15 mm in body length; males are smaller, sometimes very small (2 mm). Most have globose, shiny abdomens that are predominantly black with red markings (although some may be pale and/or have lateral stripes), with moderately long, slender legs. These spiders are nocturnal and build a three-dimensional tangled web, often with a conical tent of dense silk in a corner where the spider hides during the day. In nature, most species are found under rocks and logs, but they readily adapt to human-altered environments, where they are most commonly found in outbuildings (sheds, barns, privies), water meter holes, nursery cans, and under any item or structure (e.g., barbeque grill, slide, sand box) that has been undisturbed for a lengthy period. Formerly, most bites by black widows (almost all by female spiders) occurred in outhouses, but presently, Latrodectus bites occur most frequently when the spider is trapped against human skin, either by reaching under objects where the spider is hiding or when putting on clothing, gloves or shoes containing the spider. Widow spiders are generally very timid and only bite in self-defense when they accidentally contact humans. Bite symptoms are systemic, spreading through the lymphatic system, and usually start about 1-3 hours after the bite. The most common symptoms are intense pain, rigid abdominal muscles, muscle cramping, malaise, local sweating, nausea, vomiting, and hypertension. If left untreated, Latrodectus bite symptoms usually last 3-5 days. Calcium gluconate and/or antivenin may be administered to relieve or counteract symptoms. There are four species of widow spiders in Florida: * Latrodectus mactans, the southern black widow * Latrodectus variolus, the northern black widow * Latrodectus bishopi, the red widow * Latrodectus geometricus, the brown widow

No, spiders do not like chocolate. Spiders are not capable of tasting or deriving pleasure from food in the way that humans or mammals do. Their diet consists mainly of insects and other small arthropods.

Using the wrong anti-venom can potentially lead to an allergic reaction or worsen the symptoms of the venomous bite or sting. It is important to properly identify the type of venom involved and use the appropriate anti-venom to effectively treat the toxicity. Consulting with a healthcare professional or poison control center is crucial if there is uncertainty about the type of venom or appropriate treatment.

I am only young butt i know that this question all depends on how big the bite is and it is sad to say buut could be very fatal to a average person of the age 10 or younger for anywhere older it could be extremly dangerous butt for those people worring about it, it is very unlikley you would get killed from a black widow. thank you Alyce D

No, spiders do not leave slimy trails like snails or slugs do. Spiders produce silk from spinnerets located at the back of their abdomen, which they use to construct webs, wrap prey, or create egg sacs.

the brown recluse would win because of the scaring and the blue red discoloration:

answer- actually I just put these two spiders in the same container and watched them fight to the death. The brown recluse didn't really do anything, but the black widow spun its web and when the brown recluse got stuck inside of i, it was game over.. the black widow attacked the brown recluse by stabbing it with it's back legs and then bit it multiple times. Now the black widow is posted up in the corner of the container full.

Millipedes can release a defensive fluid that may cause skin irritation or a mild allergic reaction in some people, but they do not bite or sting. It is rare for millipedes to cause harm to humans through direct contact.

Cephalothorax means 'head chest', and it is exactly what it sounds like. Spiders have one, being the frontmost part of their bodies. Insects have a separate head and thorax, but spiders have their eyes and jaws (head) on the same part as their legs (thorax in insects).

In Greek Mythology, Arachne was killed by Athena after losing a spinning contest to her. After Arachne lost, she hung herself in the forest. Athena took pity on her, and turned her into a spider. Since her name was Arachne, spiders are also known as Arachnids.

Yes, funnel web grass spiders are non-venomous and do not pose a threat to humans. They are known for their distinctive funnel-shaped webs and are commonly found in grassy areas or gardens where they feed on small insects.
