Ground Spider

Under rocks, logs, leaf litter, and occasionally inside buildings on ground levels.

Carnivorous; feeds on other small insects and spiders. They are active hunters that do not use webs to catch prey.

Mainly nocturnal hunters. They are known for their speed and use of silk to entangle and subdue prey rather than spinning a traditional snare web.

Benefits the ecosystem by controlling pest insect populations; they are generally harmless to humans and rarely bite unless handled roughly.
