Scary Spiders

Spiders are scary but they are helpful.

Some spiders are helpful.  Without spiders we would have too many insects.

All sorts of spiders can be different colours and they need to be hairy so they can stick to sloping and smooth surfaces. They are scary to some people. Spiders are scary but it’s just the look of them because the jaws of a tarantula and hair makes them look scary. It is interesting because the biggest spider is as big as a dinner plate The smallest spider is the size of a pin head.

When the mother dies the baby spiders sometimes eat her.

Some spiders live for a year and the tarantula can live for 15 years.  Some live in tunnels and under water and sometimes wood.

Their web helps them to catch their food like insects they wrap them up in silk. 

It’s very interesting what spiders can be.
