    Do spiders wander far from their net? Not as far as bees obviously, I’m just curious.

      There are a lot of different types of spiders. Some don’t spin webs at all, some create little nets of web, and others create huge web residences. Spiders are fairly ubiquitous, the entire world over.

      Except for the ones that live in huge communal nets, they have to go out at minimum for sex.

      pretty sure most spiders (most species at least) don’t even make nets, they just use the silk like climbing ropes and stuff.
