CATDOLL : CATDOLL: What are the taboos of raising spiders? (What are the taboos of raising spiders?)

1. How to raise spiders so that they will get close to you?

1. Prepare a ventilated breeding box, put coconut soil, sterile soil and other substrates in it, and place hiding holes and fake trees according to the habits of the spider species. Spiders need to hunt by themselves. There is no need to put too many unnecessary objects in the breeding box.

2. Keep the breeding temperature between 17-25℃ and the humidity at around 65%. You can put a small water cup with some cotton in it.

3. Mainly feed crickets, locusts, moths, etc. The remaining food residues should be cleaned up and the coconut soil should be replaced regularly. This substrate is easy to breed bacteria, and if it is not replaced in time, it will easily cause the spider to become sick or even die.

2. What should you pay attention to when raising spiders?

1. The breeding temperature should be around 25℃. The temperature difference between day and night should not be too large. Pay attention to cooling down in summer to prevent heatstroke, and pay attention to heating up in winter to keep warm.

2. Adjust the humidity according to the species of spider, generally keep it at 65-70%. If it is too low, the spider may become dehydrated.

3. A good ventilation environment can make spiders strong, reduce diseases, and help them safely pass through each molting.

4. Avoid direct sunlight.

5. The spider's molting is controlled by the secretory hormones of the secretory cells in the ganglia of the brain and the abdominal ganglia. There are usually signs. First, the spider's activity decreases before molting, and it looks for a quiet place, does not eat or move, enters a semi-dormant state, and other metabolic activities are in a weak state; second, the body shape, the abdomen is obviously enlarged, the skin is rough, the body segments are clear, and there are cracks.

3. What are the varieties of pet spiders?

Common pet spiders include the Intellectual Red Rose, Intellectual Fire Rose, Mexican Red Knees, Mexican Fire Legs, Honduras Curly, Guatemalan Red Tail, etc.

Some spiders are docile, but some are poisonous and aggressive. We should try not to handle them directly during daily breeding. It is best to use tools to touch them.

2. What should you pay attention to when raising garden spiders?

1. After the new spider arrives home, keep it away from light for three days. After the spider changes to a new environment, the change in environment makes the spider feel insecure. The insecure spider will become aggressive and will not eat. So the best way at this time is to keep it away from light (light can also make spiders nervous) and keep it away for two to three days. Don't worry, the spider will not starve to death if it doesn't eat for two or three days.

2. You need to choose a suitable breeding box and shelter (generally bark, but there are also shelters made of other materials). You need to choose a box of moderate size. And spiders need shelter to feel safe.

3. Control the temperature. Most pet spiders are tropical species. So they have high temperature requirements. Generally speaking, they will eat less if the temperature is below 20 degrees, and their lives will be in danger if the temperature is below 10 degrees. Not to mention the minus dozens of degrees in the Northeast, there is no hope. So a heating pad is essential for raising pet spiders. Of course, it would be better to use a constant temperature box if conditions permit.

4. Control humidity. Generally speaking, there are high requirements for air humidity. But the air humidity cannot be too high. Low air humidity will cause juvenile spiders to dehydrate due to dryness, and adult or sub-adult spiders will not be able to complete molting. High air humidity will cause your pet spider to develop "soft feet syndrome". Therefore, it is necessary to buy a hygrometer.

5. Do not clean spider webs. Some species of pet spiders are keen on weaving webs. Weaving webs is the nature of spiders and their means of hunting. Moreover, the nests they weave with spider webs are their homes. Frequent cleaning of spider webs not only increases the risk of being bitten, but may also cause the spider's nerves to be sensitive and cause sudden death. The gain does not outweigh the loss.

6. Change the coconut soil frequently. Coconut soil is the bedding material for pet spiders. Generally speaking, the sterile coconut soil sold on the market is used. However, because it is usually used after being soaked, it is easier to breed mites and bacteria, resulting in small white particles mixed in the coconut soil, causing "mite explosion", which can lead to the death of spiders in severe cases. So be sure to clean it on time.

7. Clean up the food residue in time after feeding. If the spiders' leftovers are not cleaned up for a long time after feeding, it is very easy to breed bacteria and mites. This is what experts call "mite explosion". This situation is a serious situation that threatens the life of pet spiders, so it cannot be sloppy. Generally, you can clean it up after a few dozen minutes after feeding.

8. Pay attention to safety. Don't touch! Don't touch! Don't touch! I have to say it three times. The safety is still not guaranteed. Even if a bite does not threaten life, the pain is very unbearable. Therefore, whether feeding or changing soil, you must pay attention to safety!

3. What should you pay attention to when raising spiders?

1. Some pet spiders are difficult to keep. Since many pet spiders are tropical species, the temperature must be kept at around 25 degrees when they are kept. It is best not to be lower than 20 degrees. There is no big problem with a higher temperature, but a low temperature will affect its eating. If it is a few degrees or below zero, it will be life-threatening.

2. The best place to raise spiders is a wooden box. At the same time, it is best to choose a suitable box according to the size of the spider. At the same time, you should also choose according to the type of spider, so that they will feel safer when living in it.

3. Moreover, spiders come from different places and have certain requirements for temperature and humidity. They can be said to be very delicate pets. If they are in relatively dry areas, young spiders may die of dehydration, and even large ones will shed their skin. If it is too humid, they will get sick, so you need to pay attention.

4. After the spider moves to a new environment, it is easy to lack a sense of security. At this time, the spider will be aggressive or will not eat. You can put the spider in a breeding box away from light for two or three days, and it will not be nervous and will not eat.

5. Web-making is the nature of spiders and also their means of hunting. It can be said that the nest they weave with spider webs is their home. So if you keep such spiders, you must be careful not to clean the spider webs frequently, otherwise you will be easily bitten, and it is also easy to cause the spider's nerves to be sensitive and die.

6. Coconut soil is the bedding material for pet spiders. Although it is usually sterile when purchased, it is easy to breed bacteria because it needs to be soaked before use. Therefore, the coconut soil must be cleaned regularly, otherwise it will easily cause the spider to become sick or even die.

7. Because most pet spiders are poisonous, you must not handle them when raising them. Although a bite will not threaten your life, the pain is unbearable. So you must be careful during the raising process and try to wear gloves.

4. Why can’t we keep spiders?

First of all, it is not suitable for families with children to keep spiders, especially poisonous spiders. Spiders have many legs and like to crawl around, which may scare children and is not good for their health.

The second thing is to prepare a place for the spider to live. You can use lampshades, glass jars, wooden boxes, or paper boxes. Depending on the habits of different spiders, prepare some food near the nest during the feeding period to prevent the spider from hunting everywhere, crawling around, or having no fixed residence. Feng Shui believes that a house full of spider webs will lead to financial loss, so you must make sure your pet spider can find its own cave and stay there for a long time.

5. How to keep spiders in the dormitory in winter? The spider larvae are very small and can be placed in a cup?

1. It is not recommended to keep spiders in the dormitory as the environment is not ideal.

2. If the temperature is low in winter, heating equipment must be installed to maintain a survival temperature above 23 degrees, and water should be sprayed appropriately to maintain humidity.

3. Reduce feeding and keep food fresh.

4. Reduce movement and keep the spider active.

6. Why can’t we use a big box to raise spiders?

The box for raising spiders cannot be too big, because if it is too big, the air holes in the box will also be larger, and the spider may drill out of the air holes, which would be very dangerous!

What to look out for when keeping pet spiders

01. After the new spider arrives home, keep it away from light for three days. After the spider moves to a new environment, it will feel insecure because of the change in environment. The insecure spider will become aggressive and will not eat. So the best way at this time is to keep it away from light (light can also make spiders nervous) and keep it away for two to three days. Don't worry, the spider will not starve to death if it doesn't eat for two or three days.

02. You need to choose a suitable breeding box and place a shelter (generally bark, but there are also shelters made of other materials). Arboreal spiders need a relatively high box, while terrestrial spiders can use a flat box. The box should not be too big or too small, but a box of moderate size. Spiders need shelter to feel safe, especially arboreal species such as the gorgeous rainforest and pink toes. Therefore, it is also very important to arrange shelters.

03. Control the temperature. Pet spiders, especially tarantulas, are mostly tropical species. Therefore, they have high temperature requirements. Generally speaking, they will eat less if the temperature is below 20 degrees, and their lives will be in danger if the temperature is below 10 degrees. Not to mention the minus dozens of degrees in the Northeast, there is no hope. Therefore, a heating pad is essential for raising pet spiders. Of course, it would be better to use a constant temperature box if conditions permit.

04. Control the humidity. This is also because they come from the tropics. Especially for pet spiders that come from rainforest climates. Generally speaking, they have higher requirements for air humidity. But the air humidity cannot be too high. Too low air humidity will cause juvenile spiders to dehydrate due to dryness, and adult or sub-adult spiders will not be able to complete molting. Too high air humidity will cause your pet spider to suffer from "soft feet syndrome". So it is necessary to buy a hygrometer.

05. Do not clean spider webs. Some species of pet spiders are keen on weaving webs. Weaving webs is the nature of spiders and their means of hunting. Moreover, the nests they weave with spider webs are their homes. Frequent cleaning of spider webs not only increases the risk of being bitten, but may also cause the spider's nerves to be sensitive and cause sudden death. The gain does not outweigh the loss.

06. Change the coconut soil frequently. Coconut soil is the bedding material for pet spiders. Generally speaking, the sterile coconut soil sold on the market is used. However, because it is usually used after being soaked, it is easier to breed mites and bacteria, resulting in small white particles mixed in the coconut soil, causing "mite explosion", which can lead to the death of spiders in severe cases. So be sure to clean it on time.

07. Clean up the food residue in time after feeding. If the spiders' leftovers are not cleaned up for a long time after feeding, it is very easy to breed bacteria and mites. This is what experts call "mite explosion". This situation is a serious situation that threatens the life of pet spiders, so it cannot be sloppy. Generally, you can clean it up after a few dozen minutes after feeding.

08. Pay attention to safety. Don't touch it! Don't touch it! Don't touch it! I'll say it three times. Although there are many docile species that have been demonstrated to be handled, their safety cannot be guaranteed. Most pet spiders are highly venomous. Even if you are not careful, you will be bitten by them.

7. Why can’t spiders be bred artificially?

Spiders cannot be raised artificially because they have very strict requirements for the environment and prey. If you are interested in raising spiders, you can refer to the following points: 1. The breeder should move gently and steadily, and should not get too close to the egg sac. During the incubation period, the female spider has the behavior of guarding the egg sac and will attack anything that approaches the egg sac. Some female spiders place the egg sac under their abdomen to prevent it from being attacked by the outside world.

8. How to raise spiders and what should you pay attention to?

How to raise spiders:

1. There are many species of spiders, and they have a variety of diets, are resistant to hunger, have strong vitality, and are easy to raise. As long as they have food, water, and shelter, they can be raised normally. For example, the main species of spiders raised as pets at home are: bird spiders, black widow spiders, golden spiders, burrowing wolf spiders, Chinese wolf spiders, big-bellied orb spiders, etc. These are all non-toxic spiders with high economic value and are very suitable for novices to raise.

2. For raising hunting spiders, generally large-mouthed cans, wide-mouthed bottles, and specimen bottles can be used as raising tools. However, the bottle mouth should be sealed with double-layer gauze and some twisted cardboard or small firewood stalks should be placed inside for the spiders to climb and hide. For raising web-making spiders, the spider cage is made of white plastic window screens, with a length, width, and height of 20 cm each. A circular hole with a diameter of 10 cm is opened on one side of the cage, and a cloth bag with two empty ends is sewn to the edge of the circular hole as an operating hole. The cloth bag is usually tied with a rubber band and opened only when operating. The four corners of the cage are fixed to the cage frame with four cloth straps to fix the spider cage into shape.

3. Regarding the feeding of spiders, the smaller the spider, the higher the feeding frequency, and the larger the spider, the lower the frequency. Spiders do not need to be fed for a period of time after molting, because their exoskeletons have not yet hardened. Feeding live feed at this time may cause harm to the spider. Similarly, if the spider stops eating, the live feed left in the breeding box must be removed to prevent the spider from being harmed during the molting period. Now raising spiders is becoming more and more popular and fashionable. Spiders as alternative pets have been accepted and loved by more people. But when raising spiders, you still have to pay attention. Because spiders are poisonous, but the degree of toxicity of different species of spiders is different. In the process of raising spiders, you must be careful not to be bitten by spiders, and disinfect them in time when you are about to be bitten. And the breeder must not raise spiders with very strong toxicity.

9. Do you need sunlight to raise spiders?

Don't put it in the sun. Spiders don't like the sun. The sun will burn them or even kill them. After placing it, don't worry about it. Check it again after 3-5 days and then feed it. Be sure to let the spider rest and don't touch it right away.

Also, spiders are territorial, so if you want to keep more than one, you must keep them separately and not put them in the same box.

10. What are the precautions and taboos for novices in raising spiders?

1 Precautions: Before raising spiders, you should understand their habits and nutritional needs, provide them with appropriate feed and water, clean their living environment regularly, and prevent them from being infected with germs. 2 Taboos: Do not touch spiders at will, do not expose them to direct sunlight, do not feed them too much raw meat and animal offal, and do not place different types of spiders in the same container. 3 Content extension: Raising spiders can cultivate people's observation ability and sense of responsibility, but they also need to pay attention to safety and hygiene issues. In the process of raising spiders, you can learn a lot about animals and ecology, and you can also understand the differences and characteristics between different types of spiders.
