No, they trap and eat other insects. Spiders are Carnivores. Except for the eight-legged vegetarian, called Bagheera kiplingi, lives in Central America, and is now considered a rarity among the world's 40,000 or so spider species, most of which are strictly predators, feeding on insects and other animals. B. kiplingi is about the size of a person's pinky nail.

Is a spider a omnivore carnivore or herbivore?

Almost all spiders are carnivores that specialize on insects. There is only one spider known that gets all or most of its food from plant life, and that is one that eats pollen. Technically, those spiders are vegetarians, but they do not eat the plants that produce the pollen so they probably should not be regarded as herbivores.
