Masked Hunter (nymph stage)

Found indoors in dark, dusty areas, cracks, and crevices.

Predatory, feeding on small arthropods like spiders, bed bugs, and woodlice.

Nymphs use sticky secretions to cover themselves in dust and debris for camouflage. They are nocturnal and lie in wait for prey.

Benefits include preying on household pests; risks are limited to a painful defensive bite if handled improperly.
