    A few years ago I had an orb weaver who’d set up shop across my front steps at night and haul it all in and be gone by morning. I thought they were supposed to be day predators, and I never knew why it liked that spot so much or why it chose night time to weave its web.

    spiders are opportunistic ambush predators, and orb weavers have poor eyesight — they’re primarily tactile. night and day are mostly irrelevant, except for prey activity levels.

    I’ve got a monster ass big huntsman living in my kitchen now. I spooked it yesterday (it spooked me too) and it jumped behind the fridge. I heard a thud when it hit the floor. I guess these are good to have around the house as they are no nonsense predators.
