Comb-Clawed Spider - (Achaearanea spp.)





Comb-clawed spiders are the most common type of house spider in North America. They come in a variety of colors and typically form webs in corners of buildings (sheds, garages, homes). They use the combs on their feet to fling strands of web at their recently snared prey, aiding in securing them.

Females hang egg sacs near their resting site and guard them until hatching.

This family of spiders includes species like the black widow, the brown widow and the American house spider.

Fans of Spiderman may recognize the body shape of these spiders being that of the one that bites Peter Parker.
