What type of spider is red or orange with a yellow triangle on its back?

If you don't hear anything there is a site that you can send a picture of it and they will try and help. http://www.whatsthatbug.com/spiders.html There are probably several different spiders world-wide that fit the description in the question. Therefore this is only one of possibly several answers.

Here in southeast Texas, we have a spider which I think matches your description, which is commonly known as a "Golden Garden Spider." The Golden Garden Spider is considered a beneficial["good"] spider in that it is not poisonous, does not bite or sting, and captures a tremendous amount of insects which are NOT considered beneficial.

The Golden Garden Spider usually "sets up" their web in the early evening, leaving it up and in operation during the night hours. It then generally "disappears" during the day, to reappear with a newly created web the next evening. Sometimes, they will keep/maintain the web for as much as a few weeks. Another unusual feature of the web is that it is generally created in a vertical plane, across "pathways" through the vegetation. This can be very disconcerting for anyone walking down that trail in the dark, and into the large, tough web in the face!!! In spite of this, many gardeners, and a few spider fanatics have assured me that the Golden Garden Spider is totally HARMLESS, and that we should protect and preserve them as much as possible.

How does the spider plant reproduce?

Spider plants will shoot out "babies" only once it becomes root-bound in its pot; if you want it to 'baby" you need to keep it in a small pot and not transplant like you would any other plant. Once it bears offspring, you may transplant but only in one in larger diameter pots. For optimum plants, spiders should be used as a hanging plant rather than a table top, or at the very least, should be on a pedestal no wider than the bottom of the pot the plant is in and at least 2x the heighth of the pot and plant. They also like alot of light so put them in a window, but not in one where the direct sun will beat in on it or you may "cook" your plant.

How can you tell how old a spider is?

You can calculate an orb weavers size from its web, but that's about all. Given a strict diet, the length of time a particular species goes between molting can estimate age, but this is hardly worth the controlled conditions required. Some ages can be 'estimated' by color/pattern changes after a molt,depending on species.

Typically, a spiders age is not scaled in time, but rather the number of molts. Each of these periods is called its 'instar',and after a final molt, considered adult.(full grown)
