	Spider Survey
		These spiders have the ability to slowly change color to match the color of the flower they are on; white, pink, and yellow specimens are commonly seen.
		Wolf spiders have a reflective layer in their eyes, the tapetum, which will be visible at night as a sparkling point of blue-green light by flashlight.
		Spiders may be controlled by the use of a fast acting poison with little residual activity sprayed directly on the offending animals.

	Spider
		Spiders reproduce by eggs laid in silk bundles called egg sacs, and the male (usually significantly smaller than the female) is likely to be killed by the female after the coupling, or sometimes before intercourse has occurred.
		When sexually mature, a male spider will spin a web pad onto which the contents of the abdominal reproductive organs are discharged and then the seminal fluid is transferred into the cavities of the palpi; when an individual secures a mate he thrusts the palpi one at a time into her abdominal genital openings.
		The widow spiders, brown recluse spiders, hobo spiders, and yellow sac spiders are the dangerous ones among U.S. spiders.

		Reproduction Spiders reproduce by eggs laid in silk bundles called egg sacs, and the male (usually significantly smaller than the female) is likely to be killed by the female after the coupling, or sometimes before intercourse has occurred.
		Unlike the other problematical spiders, the females of these most highly toxic of U.S. spiders stay on their web, and the males (which wander around seeking mates) are too small to deliver a dangerous amount of venom.
		Spiders, arranged by hunting method and common name Over 37,000 species of spiders have been identified but because of their great ability for hiding it is believed there are near 200,000 species.

	Spider Web Facts: Silk Properties and Purpose of Different Webs of Spiders
		Spider's silk can be used to help small, young spiders transport to new areas (ballooning) or be so strong that it is used to make fish nets, as with the Nephila spider web.
		Spiders have seven pairs of silk spinning organs or glands called “spinnerets” located either in the middle or at the end of their abdomen.
		The silk that spiders produce are used for building webs, catching prey, storing food, escaping from danger, making egg sacs, sending and receiving vibrating signals and for transportation on silken ropes called “ballooning” as the spider floats through the air on the strand of silk.

		The bowl and doily spider, Frontinella communis, is a species of sheet weaver.
		It is a small spider, about 4 mm (0.2 inch) long, that weaves a fairly complex sheet web system consisting of an inverted dome shaped web, or "bowl", suspended above a horizontal sheet web, or "doily", hence its common name.
		The spider hangs from the underside of the "bowl", and bites through the web small flies, gnats and other small insects that fall down into the non-sticky webbing.

	Spider Silk
		If prey is caught someplace in the web, the spider knows where in the web the prey is caught by the vibrations transmitted to her via the radii.
		Once a spider is outside its old exoskeleton, its new exoskeleton is soft, and the newly emerged spider in a matter of hours grows larger than it was before, like a sponge that has been under pressure suddenly being released.
		Once the spider reaches its new full size, its new exoskeleton hardens, and that's the end of the spider's growth until the next time the exoskeleton must be split and discarded.
