Spiders

Australian Wolf Spider Spiders can be caught in bushes or in the house. Collect them up in a cardboard box so they are not harmed.

You can only keep a spider for a few days so it will not need feeding, but if you can trap a small fly it will provide the spider with a tasty meal.

Carefully place the spider in a jar that will give it plenty of room, with a lottle pot inside it containing wet cotton wool. Keep the cotton wool moist.

Give the spider a small stick with several branches and perhaps it will weave a web for you.
