Environmentally, spiders are very important pests. They are predators that feed on a wide variety of garden and other nuisance pests, helping to keep their populations from overtaking an area.
Spiders are shy by nature and build their webs or burrows in quiet, secluded spots. Gardens, rock crevices, tall grasses, woodpiles, areas behind window shutters and wooden shingles, and underneath decks are all common outdoor hiding spots. Spiders mainly live outside but will follow their prey indoors. Garages, sheds, basements, crawlspaces, closets, and under furniture make excellent hiding spots for spiders.
