    Spiders are poisonous. It is common to see many spiders forming cobwebs in the corners of walls and between tree branches. The spider rests its paws on the silk thread attached to the spider's web and waits.

    Whenever a mosquito flies by, it often bumps into the net and is hung by the net, and it can't break free even if it struggles desperately. At this point, the spider will quickly crawl over and eat the insects that have fallen into the web.

    When people saw that spiders would build webs to catch insects, they thought it had "wisdom" and named it "Zhispider" (ancient Zhitongzhi). Because it is an insect, the word insect was added later. In fact, spiders' web-catching insects are not wisdom, but an instinct.

    Value significanceSpider silk is expected to be used in the manufacture of high-strength materials, and experts from the Institute of Genetic Biology of the Russian Academy of Sciences are actively studying the use of spider silk to make high-strength materials. There is a cluster of spinning organs behind the spider's abdomen, which is connected to the silk glands in the body. The gland secretes a protein mucus that is able to condense into extremely strong spider silk in the air.
