Spiders Belong To The Araneae Order
Most people have saw spiders at some point or another. If the spider was outside, you likely did your best to avoid it. If the spider was in your home, you might have tried to get rid of it. Doing so could potentially be very dangerous since spiders can bite humans and pets. Spiders are members of the Araneae order. In most cases, they have eight eyes and eight eyes. Plus, they have fangs and the ability to inject venom into their victims. The world is crawling with 40,000 spider species and that is enough to scare you. Another unique thing about spiders is that they can extrude silk and build webs.
Spiders use webs to trap prey before moving in for the kill. Common spider prey includes spiders and other insects. However, some of the larger spider species can kill lizards and birds. Although most spiders travel alone, some are social. The social spider species will build communal webs and live together with 50,000 other spiders. When living in the wild, spiders typically survive for two years or so, but they can survive for 25 years when they’re living in a protected environment.
Although both genders have palps, a male will have a bigger pair. Another thing to note is that male spiders are more likely to enter your home when they’re searching for mates.

Most spider bites will be uncomfortable and painful, but most are not deadly.
Why Spiders Entered My Home
Spiders may decide to enter your home for one reason or another. In some cases, it is a male spider that is desperately searching for a female mate. On the other hand, it could be a spider that is searching for food or a dark, moist place to build webs.
