Ten Spider fact that can trigger your arachnophobia

1. Ten Spider Facts That Can Trigger Your
Arachnophobia
MALE SPIDERS GIVE GIFTS MADE OUT
OF DEAD INSECTS TO FEMALE SPIDERS
THERE ARE SPIDERS THAT LIVE
COMPLETELY UNDERWATER
As a peace offering, the male spider gifts
the female spider a dead insect
wrapped in web silk, which is
also a request to mate.
THERE ARE SPIDERS AROUND THE WORLD
THAT CAN EAT BATS AND FISH
Spiders in every continent, except
Antarctica, are known to enjoy a meal of
bat and fish occasionally. Size doesn’t
really matter to such spiders
that can consume creatures
five times bigger than them.
SPIDERS CAN FLY DOWN IN
GROUPS LIKE RAIN
This phenomena happens when
spiders climb up anywhere as high
as possible and then use their
webs to jump down in a twisted
version of paragliding.
SPIDERS IN URBAN SPACES ARE LARGER
THAN IN ANY OTHER PLACE
It is the lack of vegetation, hard
concrete surfaces that is leading
to such a change in the size of
spiders.
SPIDERS EAT THEIR OWN WEBS
ONCE THEY ARE DONE WITH THEM
Once the webs are too dirty or unusable,
spiders eat them and use the nutrients
they gain from it to spin new webs.
There is a kind of spider called the diving
bell spider that spends most of its time
underwater and is commonly found in
Asia and Europe.
SPIDERS ARE CAPABLE OF
SURVIVING IN SPACE
Based on several experiments done by
NASA, it was discovered that
orb-weaving spiders can
survive in space.
SPIDERS CAN BE FOUND ALMOST
EVERYWHERE AROUND THE WORLD
You can find spiders in every continent
except Antarctica. It was found in a study
in North Carolina that for every fifty
rooms examined, only
five turned out to be
spider-free.
SPIDERS ARE GETTING ANGRIER DUE
TO CLIMATE CHANGE
This is especially true in the case of
spiders living in cyclone-prone areas,
where tropical storms are bringing
evolutionary changes in spiders and
making them angrier than ever.
SPIDERS CAN LAY THOUSANDS OF
EGGS AT A TIME
Since spiders can produce around nine
egg sacs each of which can contain
around two hundred eggs.
