These spiders hang upside down in their webs in dark cellars, garages and other buildings and prey year-round on insects and spiders. Urban legend has it that their venom is among the deadliest of all spiders but that the weak mouthparts keep them from injecting a lethal dose in humans. While it is true that the chelicerae are too small to puncture human skin, the venom is not particularly potent.
