What do black widows spiders eat?

Black widow spiders eat flies, moths, and other insects that fall, crawl, or fly into the web. Black widows make messy "tangle" webs. They like to make their webs in dark protected place with access to the outside. They are usually found in places like overturned boxes in the yard, boxes that are made to protect well pumps, to hide faucets for lawn watering systems, to screen water meters, etc. In short, anything that looks like a box, has a crack or a hole or two in it so that insects can come in to get out of the weather, and is close to the ground may give a black widow spider supports to hang a web from and protection from the weather and from its natural enemies. Black widows will eat just about anything that is small enough to be unable to rapidly pull free of its web. They are unlikely to catch otherwise suitable prey such as butterflies that will not ordinarily go into dark places near the ground.


Do black widows jump?

No, not as a descriptive physical attribute. Black Widows are of the "Web-Family" of spiders. Meaning they spin a sticky silk web to catch their prey. They are not built to scurry along solid environments and "jump" after their prey. "Jumping" spiders live on the land, in trees, under rocks, etc. They will often have hairy bodies. Larger and stronger, with longer legs just made for jumping. And will. But almost always, they are after food. Not you.It's a good thing for us that Black Widow are not natural jumpers, but prefer to be left alone in a tangle of webbing. Only the female, with the red hourglass, is venomous. The non-poisonous males are often eaten by the females after mating. Hence the name, "Black Widow."
