Spiders

The spider you are describing is likely a green lynx spider. They are known for their bright lime green bodies and sometimes have dull yellow legs. Green lynx spiders are typically found in North and Central America.

Tarantulas are known for their intricate funnel-shaped webs, but there are species of spider such as the Wolf Spider who's web is funnel shaped as well. More than likely the spider is not dangerous, but it depends on the species of the spider you're dealing with. A common spider in the pacific northwest that create a funnel like web are the hobo spider. It can not kill you but their venom is rather potent. It can dissolve the skin surrounding the bite if the bite is not treated correctly. They are large, and the hobo is larger than the brown, and the hobo is also more dangerous. In addition to greater size, it has greater speed and the venom is more potent ------------------------- The spider he's talking about is the Sydney Funnel-Web which can kill a human within 40 minutes of the time of the bite. & The Hobo spider is not the spider that dissolves skin, the Brown Recluse is the one that dissolves skin.

The spider you are referring to is likely the Bold Jumping Spider (Phidippus audax). This species is identified by its black body with white markings and orange bands on its legs. They are known for their bold behavior and quick movements.

Black widow spiders are known for their distinctive orange to red hourglass-shaped markings on their abdomens. While their bite can be venomous and potentially harmful to humans, they typically only bite when threatened. Smiley faces, on the other hand, are a classic symbol of happiness and positivity.

Many spiders fluoresce under ultraviolet light, but it appears blue. I think you're looking for an iridescent green spider. Many spiders are also iridescent, and it's difficult to identify a spider without seeing it first hand. Many experts can't even identify a spider without observing it under a microscope.

The fuzzy black and white spider commonly seen in Racine, Wisconsin is likely the bold jumping spider (Phidippus audax). This species has distinctive black and white markings and is known for its bold behavior and impressive jumping abilities. Bold jumping spiders are harmless to humans and are beneficial predators that help control insect populations in gardens and homes.

Male funnel web spiders can reach up to 2 inches (5 cm) in body length with legs spanning up to 6 inches (15 cm), while females are larger, with body lengths reaching up to 1.5 inches (4 cm) and leg spans up to 8 inches (20 cm).

There is no known insect that is part bee, part spider, and part ant. Insects do not typically have characteristics from multiple different species. Each insect species has its own unique characteristics and features.

4 and a bit years

Two tarantulas can live together if they are the same sex. After mating the female will usually kill the male and often this fight will end with both spiders being dead. It is very hard to tell a female tarantula from a male.

House spiders, like all spiders, have eight legs, not six. The eight legs are an important adaptation for spiders as it allows them to move quickly and efficiently, catch prey, and navigate their environment.

The average size of a spider varies greatly depending on the species. Some species can be as small as 0.04 inches (0.1 cm) while others can have a leg span of over 11 inches (28 cm).

Spider ants are a type of ant species that typically have elongated bodies with long, slender legs. They are known for their unique appearance that resembles a cross between an ant and a spider, hence the name "spider ant." These ants are often found in tropical regions and exhibit interesting behaviors such as foraging and communicating through vibrations.

According to the California Poison Control Center,allspiders have some amount of venom that is potent in varying degrees. The Black Widow is very common in most parts of California and while it is poisonous and not one I mess with, it is reported that no one has died from a black widow bight in the last 10 years. However if you are bitten by one and have problems with nausea, fever, infection, etc. or if you are very young or elderly, you should seek medical treatment. The Brown Recluse is another poisonous spider that many people report seeing in California, The State Poison Control Center, as well as several members of the scientific community claim that there are no true "Brown Recluse" Spiders in California but that there are 4 other types of Recluse spiders, none of them are reportedly poisonous.

According to Dr. G.B. Edwards, an arachnologist with the Florida State Collection of Arthropods in Gainesville, the brown widow venom is twice as potent as black widow venom. However, they do not inject as much venom as a black widow, are very timid, and do not defend their web.

A spider has an exoskeleton, which is a hard external covering that provides structure and support to its body. This exoskeleton is made of a tough material called chitin, which protects the spider's internal organs and provides attachment points for muscles.

well i live there and there r daddy long legs and common spiders. i have seen a few tranchulas but most are none posionious

...There are Daddy long legs. Black widows. Tarantulas. There are a lot of other spiders. There are barn spiders. And a fast little black spider that is everywhere. It is kinda small and there are a lot of them.

Most spiders here are non lethal. With the exception of the black widow. But even then if you get proper medical attention it is no big deal.

I've lived here my whole life, most of the time spent on a ranch in the country.

Black widow spider babies typically feed on small insects like fruit flies or pinhead crickets. They can also feed on other tiny invertebrates available in their environment. It is important to provide a varied diet to ensure their nutritional needs are met.

Trapdoor spiders protect themselves by building silk-lined burrows with hinged trapdoors made of soil, leaves, and silk. When threatened, they retreat into their burrow and quickly close the trapdoor, making it difficult for predators to reach them. Additionally, trapdoor spiders have excellent camouflage abilities, blending with their surroundings to remain hidden from potential threats.

You bet they do :D Red backs aren't fussy eaters (from my owning experience) and will eat almost anything. The one thing NONE of my red backs eat though, are those white moths with the black and red spots...

Many people do not realize that a change in size does not just make something bigger; it also increases the ratio of volume to surface area (among other significant changes) and that is why spiders are NOT the same size as a man; a spider of that size would immediately die from lack of oxygen, because the arachnid breathing mechanism is not as efficient as the human lung, and it only works at a relatively small size. So how fast would the giant spider run? It wouldn't.

I'm trying to figure this out too, today my daughter came screaming out of her room she told me there was a black spider with white stripes on its butt and she wasn't going to go back into her room until i killed it........

You'll have to do a bit more research. If web is spread out and symmetrical, sounds like an orb weaver of some sort. If it's a funnel, then could be a funnel spider. Mine turns out to be a grass spider (more to the name up front, but don't recall). flat web with funnel at end. Just remember, most spiders are helpful. Granted - all of these are rather big and "substantial" looking - but mine turns out harmless.

Good luck!

Crickets are primarily herbivores and feed on plant matter. While they may scavenge on dead insects, including spiders, they are not known to actively hunt and prey on spiders as a primary food source.

Spiders primarily eat insects and other small arthropods. They capture their prey by building webs to trap insects, ambushing them, or actively hunting them down. Once their prey is caught, spiders inject venom to paralyze or kill it before consuming it.

Spiders eat other insects. Most spiders build webs that have sticky strands to trap small insects who get tangled up when they fly into it. When the spider feels something struggling in its web it will run over and bite the prey, which will paralyze it and turn its insides to liquid (spiders can't chew). The spider then wraps its prey up in silk (like a mummy!) and it waits until the prey's insides turn to liquid so it can drink it up. Yum! Try watching a spider eat a fly from a web at home.
