As requested: Gidget v Grape

She spent the last hour hunting and stalking the very scary grape. Much bigger and scarier than her usual blueberry opponent 🤣 Success! The fiercest hunter in all the land.

False Widow

I was thrilled when I saw this little guy. I offered him water on a q-tip, and he drank some. He seemed pretty friendly.

I wasn't expecting to meet a cool little jumper on a cool, rainy day. Helped him into a better place than my car window.

How to train a spider?

Is there any way to train spiders? I had an epiphany today and thought it might be the solution to my apartment-porch-plants.

How do you train a spider? Can you get one to hunt specific bugs? Can you train them to enjoy a specific space and stay there?

If you could train a spider, what other ways would you have them do?

I know they naturally have their own bug preference, but if you introduce a family who has been raised by hand and fed a specific diet? Would they protect your garden and teach their young?
