Orb Spiders

What are orb spiders?

orb spiders in franklin tennessee

Orb spiders are named after their distinctive round, wheel-shaped webs that they create to catch prey in.

They are also called garden spiders because they are most commonly found outside in your landscaping.

Their webs are very strong and can reach 60 cm in diameter. Orb spiders have hairy or spiny legs, and range in size from ¼th to 1 inch in length.

They are light brown to black in color and have different brightly colored markings (yellow, red, orange, etc.) depending on the species.

Are orb spiders dangerous?

Orb spiders are not aggressive, but they may bite when cornered or squished. The venom from an orb spider is usually not strong enough to affect a person and typically only causes the area around the bite to become raised and red.

Why do I have an orb spider problem?

Around homes, orb spiders build their webs in the branches of trees and bushes, in gardens, and in the corners of doorways, porches, and decks. Orb spiders also commonly build their webs near or next to porch lights since the insects that they eat are drawn to light. They are the most common spider you'll find in your landscaping.
