Habitat and Biology

This spider is commonly found outdoors around human habitation, in such places as rubbish, litter, old tins, containers, under and on steps of the verandah, and on or under the seats of outdoor toilets! Storage stacks and disused furniture will encourage the breeding of this spider.

 In nature, it occurs under logs, bark, sides of rocks, etc.

As the spider rarely leaves its web, humans are not likely to be bitten unless some part of the body (eg. the hand) is put into the web. Always check before moving items that have been stored outdoors for some time. Wear gloves when cleaning up rubbish areas. The female produces up to ten pale-yellow egg sacs, each with approximately 250 eggs. Females may live for two to three years, males about 90 days.
