Sticky webs can be a home and a trap to catch flying insects. But not all spiders make webs, and not all webs are the same. The ogre-eyed spider makes a web like a net. It hangs down holding the web, waiting to throw it over its prey.
Do spiders have teeth?
No, but they have fangs for stabbing prey and injecting it with poison and special juices. The victims turn to liquid inside so that the spider can then suck them up like soup!
Amazing! The water spider makes its home under the surface of the water. It spins a web like a balloon which it fills with air bubbles. It waits inside until it spots its prey, and then darts out to seize it.
Is it true? Some spiders eat their webs.
Yes. Orb web spiders eat the old web before they spin a new one. A web may take an hour to spin. The silk is as strong as steel of the same thickness.
What can see with its tail?
As well as a sting, some scorpions also have light-sensitive cells in their tails. These cells let them know whether it’s day or night, even when their heads are underground. Scorpions hunt at night and spend the day hidden in their burrows.
