Triangulate cobweb spiders are primarily found in the crawlspaces under a house or in a cellar, where it is cool and mildly to moderately humid. Their webs can be as large as two feet wide and may be inhabited by more than one female spider of the same species. In most cases hwere there are more than one female in a common web structure, it is simply a combination of multiple webs taking up the same space.

The female will move into hollow walls of buildings and areas that are completely isolated and or protected. Males of this species will be seen in the open on occasion, usually at night, searching for a female.

It may be common to see carcasses of other spiders in or near the webs, as they do prey on other spiders.

When disturbrd or threatened, the spiders will roll into a defensive posture similar to a ball, staying there until they feel the threat has passed or they must flee. They are relatively slow moving spiders, and pose very little to no risk to humans.Willoughbyccfd5 23:22, 3 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

  • Probably true (the little buggers are all over my garage). However, observations by Wikipedians are original research--you need to find a published source for this. (Unless you are a skilled arachnologist, it is probably inappropriate for you to speculate on whether or not overlapping webs form a single web). --EngineerScotty 23:44, 4 December 2006 (UTC)Reply
