The reason I went with the black house spider and not the trap door spider was due to the white streak on its back. I ran across a house spider picture that had the same markings on it last night when I was trying to find what kind it was.

2023年2月21日 · About half an hour ago, i walked into my room and stepped directly over what looked to be a common black house spider (I live in Western Australia, it fit the profile,about 1-1.5cm, black, large abdomen, I think it was female.) when i noticed it, i tried figuring out what it was, and came to that conclusion.

I had one in my drivers side mirror for a while and had a similar problem identifying it but I read more about their descriptions and found it to be a Black House spider. I thought she was a funnel web at first because they do make funnels in their webs and the black silky colour on the legs. Turns out she was harmless.

2023年2月28日 · Hi, I’m a spider expert… almost all of this is incorrect. I know spiders are scary but this is misinformation. The brown recluse and black widow are indeed medically significant, however. For more info (including resources to back this up) please visit r/spider. Just because something looks creepy doesn’t mean it’s dangerous.

Black house spiders are very common in my area, I've never been bitten by one even though they quite happily live in almost every one if my window frames.

2020年10月23日 · I just saw a black house spider come out of it's hiding spot behind my aircon unit (about a 1cm space). But as I got closer with my phone light, it…

I let all the spiders roam through my house. Rain spiders, flat spiders, hell, mantis' as well. I can't possibly keep all the other bugs out, so together with the geckos, they're my housekeeping. I also have spider-eating jumping spiders, so that keeps the spider population under control :P

2022年5月3日 · nobody asked about the species; if the spider was found living in a web in op's bathroom, it's probably completely fine where it is. if you don't mind cohabiting with arachnids, you can just toss occasional insects into its web. spiders aren't picky and will eat just about anything, but in my experience they're most likely to eat flying …

2023年12月30日 · Really curious at what spider this is. Been calling it Curious George due to it popping it's head out once in a while at night. Fed it a few flies and in this photo I've sprayed some clean water around it's web where it's now come out to drink some.

2023年10月23日 · Black House Spider, good to have around the home & usually found in window spaces, look unsightly & can get big but harmless, bite will hurt but not dangerous. Reply reply Salzberger
