Wolf spiders typically have 100 babies and wolf spiders carry around 10 to 50 baby wolf spiders at a time.

The female wolf spiders lay approximately 100 or more eggs, which they encase in a silk sac.

Wolf spiders are protective of their eggs and, unlike other spider species, carry these spherical sacs on their spinnerets.

Wolf spiders live for 1 year to 5 years and sometimes longer.

However the male wolf spider only lives for 1 year while the female wolf spider can live for a few years or longer.

The biggest wolf spider is the Carolina Wolf Spider.

Carolina wolf spiders are found throughout a large part of North America.

This includes, but is not limited to, South Carolina, Kansas, all Great Lake States, and the American Southwest.

Wolf spiders live in places such as on cold, rocky mountaintops and some wolf spiders also live in volcanic lava tubes.

Wolf spiders also live in places from deserts to rainforests, grasslands to suburban lawns, wolf spider thrive; there's likely one nearby.

Wolf spiders are common throughout the United States, especially Missouri, Texas, and California.

In California, they are sometimes referred to as California wolf spiders.

The Kauai cave wolf spider (Adelocosa anops) inhabits the caves of Hawaii's Kauai Island.

These spiders are eyeless and reddish-brown in color.

When you squish a pregnant spider you sometimes will cause the baby spiders inside the pregnant spider to spread out and scatter.

Smashing a pregnant spider can also lead to a big mess of eggs scattered around the place.

When the female spider is carrying eggs, her abdomen becomes distended.

Although a spider's abdomen also varies in shape and size depending on how recently it has fed, with experience you can often determine whether the abdomen is bigger than "normal" for the species.

Spiders bite at night because they are most active at night.

It's not common though to get bit by a spider at night but it does happen.

Most spider bites do happen during the day though.

To stop spiders from biting you in your bed you should move your bed away from the wall and furniture and avoid putting anything under your bed.

Always shake your pillows, bed sheet, and blanket before going to your bed.

For the record, spiders are not insects but rather arachnids.

They have eight legs, and they don't have antennae.

A black widow spider is worse than a brown recluse spider because black widow spiders have a more lethal bite since it not only effects tissue but the neurological system, which can lead to death.

The brown recluse spider is also very dangerous though as well.

The brown recluse spider is one of the most dangerous spiders in the United States.

Its venom destroys the walls of blood vessels near the site of the bite, sometimes causing a large skin ulcer.

The biggest spider in the world is the goliath bird-eater spider.

The Goliath birdeater belongs to the tarantula family Theraphosidae.

Found in northern South America, it is the largest spider in the world by mass – 175 g – and body length – up to 13 cm – but it is second to the giant huntsman spider by leg span.

The worlds most deadliest spider is the wandering spider.

Wandering spiders are a family of spiders that includes the Brazilian wandering spiders.

These spiders have a distinctive longitudinal groove on the top-rear of their oval carapace similar to those of the Amaurobiidae.

They are highly defensive and venomous nocturnal hunters.

The wandering spiders bite, which delivers neurotoxic venom, can be deadly to humans, especially children, although antivenom makes death unlikely.

Because they are aggressive and have a venomous bite, it is advised not to keep this species as a pet.

This species of spider is not like Tarantulas.

Although they do have venom, they are harmless to humans.

The Wandering Spider is the world's deadliest spider.

The Wandering Spider is a large brown spider that is similar to the North American Wolf Spider but the Wandering Spider is bigger and has a more toxic venom than the American Wolf Spider.
