Spider Facts

Most spiders prefer to hide in corners or other dark places where they cast their webs and wait to capture unsuspecting insects that cross their path. Because of their reclusive habits spiders don’t often pose much of a threat to people as they inhabit places we don’t often inspect. There are some spiders however that use an alternate strategy of prowling for food at night and this often leads to more frequent unpleasant encounters.
