Yellow Sac Spider

Cheiracanthium inclusum

Yellow Sac Spider

Yellow sac spiders live in fields, shrubs, gardens, and homes, where they rest by day inside small silken sacs under leaves, bark, or indoor corners. At night they wander actively instead of building a prey-catching web, hunting small insects and other tiny arthropods. They subdue prey with a quick venomous bite from the fangs. A notable trait is their habit of making new sleeping sacs frequently, which is why they are often noticed along ceilings and wall junctions indoors.
