All You Need to Know About Spiders Spiders are super predators and devour everything they can overpower. To do this, they have developed incredibly good catching techniques and, with spider silk, a tool that makes material technology green with envy. The males are usually smaller than the females and, in order to have sex, they have to come up with a lot to avoid being misunderstood as easy prey: Dancing, drumming, and gifts almost always help. Spiders use their venom in very precise doses, and since humans are not on their menu, they are harmless to us. Many people's (unnecessary) fear of spiders finds cultural roots as early as the Middle Ages. Nevertheless, spider fear is easily treatable...

Spinnen, die als Untermieter in unseren Häusern vorkommen, werden meist ignoriert und gelegentlich (zu Unrecht) gefürchtet. Es dürfte weltweit kaum ein Gebäude geben, in dem nicht einige Spinnenarten vorkommen. Faszinierend daran ist, dass es immer wieder die gleichen Arten sind. Sie verfügen über besondere Anpassungen, denn die Luftfeuchtigkeit ist viel zu gering, es ist zu sauber und das Nahrungsangebot ist knapp. Wer aber den Sprung in unsere vier Wände geschafft hat, wird mit einem globalen Bleiberecht belohnt. Das liegt an der weltweiten Handels- und Migrationsfreudigkeit der Menschen: Sie transportieren einen unendlichen Strom von Waren um die Welt. Und unsere Hausspinnen reisen unerkannt mit. Es ist daher möglich, die weltweit anzutreffenden Hausspinnen in einem einzigen Buch vorzustellen, denn es sind überall weitgehend die gleichen. Die rund 50 wichtigsten Arten und Artengruppen werden mit einem ausführlichen Steckbrief, Fotos und Verbreitungskarten in allgemeinverständlicher Weise vorgestellt.
