Spider Facts�

  • Spider webs are threads of silk. Spiders can make as many as seven different kinds of silk, with all different purposes—from making egg cases, to hiding. They are mainly used to catch prey.
  • The silk is made inside the glands of a spider’s abdomen, where it is liquid. When it’s drawn out of their spinnerets, it becomes thread-like.
  • Spider silk is very strong—sturdier than a thread of steel that is as equally thick.
