OK, so assuming non-spider people aren't looking now. I'm so proud of Kitty. 🥹 They've gone from hating & hoovering up house spiders, to evicting them with a cup & card, to bringing me exciting household spider news. Like this Fred/cobweb spider/cellar spider/daddy long legs/why-so-many-names??

A long-legged Fred, AKA cobweb spider, AKA cellar spider, AKA a hundred other names depending where you live. It's a my kitchen wall, next to a brown house spider that is captured and wrapped in silk as a lil snacky treat.

It caught a brown house spider as a snack. Apparently they can even eat sprinters/giant house spiders/Eratigena atrica?? 🙃 Where I am, Pholcus phalangioides are called Freds, and the name daddy-long-legs is reserved for common cranefly. I assume the name fred comes from them being so common...
