Care Tips

How should I house my jumper?

Provide a secure enclosure with ventilation, climbing space, and gentle room-temperature conditions away from direct sunlight.

What should I feed my spider?

Offer appropriately sized live prey, such as fruit flies or small flies, and remove uneaten insects promptly.

How does my spider drink?

Lightly mist one enclosure side so your spider can drink droplets without making the enclosure soggy.

Can jumping spiders live together?

Jumping spiders usually thrive alone; avoid housing them together, as they may injure or eat one another.

How can I help after arrival?

Allow time to settle after arrival, minimize handling during moulting, and contact Mary’s Jumpers with any concerns.
