When it comes to spiders, many people may react to a furry, eight-legged guy who also sprays silver wire and bites, and most of the time is scared by this little guy. But in fact, there are still many people who will choose spiders as their pets, after all, spiders have the advantages of bright colors and special shapes, and some spiders are still very cute.
However, when choosing a spider as a pet for a child, many people will feel some hesitation, but in fact, as long as they can choose the right spider, raising a spider to give the child as a pet can effectively overcome the child's fear of spiders. The most suitable to start is the jumping spider that I want to introduce to you today.
A jumping spider is a small spider that relies on bouncing to ambush its prey. Unlike other spiders, which look very scary, on the contrary, such small spiders look cute. Even the size of the Emperor Jumping Spider will not exceed 3 centimeters.
How do I get a Jumping Spider?
When you decide you want to keep jumping spiders, you can check the wall panels, window sills or walls of the garage in your home, where there is a high probability of catching a jumping spider. Their small size does not cause harm to the human body. And it is actually very easy to catch them, it is enough to use a mineral water bottle, and after the spider is buckled in, the cap is closed, and when the capture is successful, it can be decorated with leaves and grass, and avoid the environment of direct sunlight.
If you want to feed them, it is best to choose some small fruit flies or crickets. Such spiders are very good to keep, but the biggest drawback may be that they are small and not very convenient to observe. If you want to interact with them, it is actually more troublesome. If you have a macro lens camera at home, it is perfect to observe them. However, it is worth noting that when raising jumping spiders, it should be noted that you can interact with them every day with small sticks or some simple leaves, which can increase the fun of breeding. But don't take them out easily, otherwise they are likely to jump without a trace as soon as they give up.
A cute and common little spider can become an alternative novelty pet, the way of breeding is relatively simple, as long as it can provide some food and a good living environment, I believe that the feeding process of jumping spiders can still bring us a lot of fun.
