No. Not all spiders have the ability to spin webs. That's because not all spiders are capable of making silk. Those spiders that do not spin webs for a living to survive use many other tactics to catch their prey. This includes the Wolf Spider that stalks and pounces on it's victim like a cat. The Trap Door Spider lives up to it's name by making a home underground where it hides. With a foilage of leaves, grass, and twigs that this spider created, its prey has nearly no chance of escaping. Why? By the time the Trap Door Spider lunges at its victim it is too late. (for the victim) There are thousands to millions of spiders that use many other tactics to catch prey besides spinning a web. Even some that haven't been discovered yet.

The venom makes the insect into liquid. Then the spider eats it.
