We here at Spiders.us are dedicated to being your headquarters for everything "spider" in the United States and Canada. Our aim is to be accurate above all else, for there exists so much misinformation, contradictory information, and downright myth, superstition and urban legend that it is no wonder so many people are fearful of spiders. We empathize and promise to put the squeamish and scared at ease as best we can. We will also defend spiders for the important roles they play in nature, pest control, medicine, engineering and other economic and cultural realms. Here you will find:
- A friendly community to discuss spiders, insects and aid in your identification efforts.
- Help in identifying the "mystery spider" in your home, office, yard, or garden.
- Help in avoiding and preventing spider bites.
- A growing library of spider species identification guides.
- Articles on the positive impacts of spiders on human culture.
We also look forward to hearing from you about how we can make this website more user-friendly and comprehensive. Thank you for choosing Spiders.us!
