Why are jumping spiders important?

They are like other spiders and eat mosquitoes, gnats, aphids, as well as other house and garden pests. Unlike other spiders, they are not reported to have ever bitten a human being so far as I know. They do not make invasive or annoying webs, and are generally very secretive. An interesting side-note is that unlike other spiders they have binocular vision and can see in color. There is also a species (portia) that lives in Australia that is unique to science in that they seem to 'learn' different styles of hunting and are intelligent enough to apply them to different prey types.

Is it true that a spider can go up your nose into your sinuses?

No, it is a common myth that spiders can crawl into your nose while you sleep. The anatomy of the nostrils and sinuses make it unlikely for a spider to enter them. If a spider were to crawl near your face, it is more likely to quickly retreat or be expelled before it could enter your nose.

How are spider webs made?

Posted answerI think a craft store would sell a kit that you could do.

Actually craft store kits are put together to create a "modern" dream catcher, not a spider web dream catcher.

For the spider web dream catcher is quite different and is considered "the original". Instead of looping the sinew around and locking each subsequent section in the center of the previous section and anchoring creating a 'diamond' you criss-cross several segments of sinew across the hoop slightly off center and anchoring each length at the hoop. Then starting at the center (easier) you spiral the sinew outward toward the hoop. Leave a small "hole" at the center of the dream catcher. OR you can spiral inward from the hoop. Make sure to have 8 "loops" of sinew in your web in deference to the (legs of) spider.
