Spiders

​What to look for

Webs, or the eight legged beauties themselves.

Why and how they turn up

They can come in with untreated bark, wood, or leaves. Some species are small enough to wander into your enclosure by themselves.

Danger level

Depending on the species they can prey on your isopods.

Prevention

Freezing wood, leaves, and bark can minimise them turning up but there's no 100% way to guarantee you never get one. They do tend to be very rare invaders though.

How to treat them

With due consideration to their species in case you get venomous ones by you, you can just catch them and release them outside.
