Tan Jumping Spider

Vertical surfaces such as tree trunks, fences, and walls of buildings.

Actively hunts small insects including flies, mosquitoes, and garden pests.

Active during the day, these spiders use their excellent vision to stalk and pounce on prey. They do not spin webs for catching food but use silk as a safety line when jumping.

Generally harmless to humans and very unlikely to bite unless provoked. They are beneficial to the ecosystem as they provide natural pest control.
