How I feed my jumping spiders and praying mantises

[@glock2101]

When he threw the fly in and said "Job Done" It sounded just like the Orc Peons in the Warcraft games!

[@mapleicecream4819]

Your method for feeding flies to your pets is so much simpler than the fridge method, and that knowledge alone was worth watching your video. Thanks for making this!

[@StewartWoodArt]

Thank you :)

[@frostedlambs]

I'm still scared of how fast they are haha

[@wendyjackson2328]

Thank you for your video. I'm just away to get my very first jumper and I was worrying how to catch the flies to feed them. After watching this I'm going to do it the way you did and hopefully I'll find it just as easy as you make it look. 😌

[@BruceParmele]

Very educational! Keep it up Stewart. I have learned a lot from you!!!

[@StewartWoodArt]

Thank you :)

Would love to own some jumping spiders but the Mrs would probably move out ..Ah now there's an idea .. Great video Stewart Love the outtakes

@@corgeta2657 you can visit the website he puts under the video or the Facebook. They can give you lots of useful information about the spiders

@@corgeta2657 if you have time, you can catch some of them at the park. I found 12 spiders yesterday on a small tree next to my neighbor

[@jasonepstein8746]

I think it sucks when people don’t like bugs. It tells me they don’t like to try to desensitize themselves to things that look bad but are okay (I feel like spider haters also don’t like people who dress weird)

[@avs4365]

Great stuff, I would have to go live in a shed (even tho we don't have one) really enjoying your work on here, many thanks.

[@StewartWoodArt]

Thank you :)

[@Rose_Haw]

Wow that's perfect! I had some trouble with feeding my spider today so this is immensely helpful!

[@dionbenitez6837]

Thanks steward wood! Now i know what to feed my jumping spider!

[@sewbratty4459]

Hi Steward! I've always wanted to get into macro photography of insects/arachnids, so I've very glad I stumbled upon your channel. Think you could make more animal care videos though please? Keep up the great work!

[@StewartWoodArt]

Thank you, I'll see what I can do.

[@solarguy6043]

Thanks for all the "nuts and bolts" for care of phidippus regius. Found 2 in the living room and keeping them in an enclosure to study and photograph seemed far better than squishing them.

[@TraceyBlackmore-k6y]

If only it were this easy for my jumping spider. My spider can't climb up the sides of the container, but the flies can. More often than not I have to smack the crap out of the container to get the fly to fall to the bottom. She takes forever to stalk her prey, and once she decides to pounce, the prey has already moved out of the way. If she can't catch the prey under a few minutes, she gives up and goes back into her cave, and the fly dies from stress or starvation. I've even tried dousing the flies in water so that I can break off the wings and a few legs so that it would stay at the bottom of the container, but it's like she knows something's wrong with the fly and loses interest in it... Because it's winter, she hasn't left her cave in almost a month. It's a little warmer today so she finally came out, and I gave her a small fly. She had trouble catching it, so she went back into her cave. I coaxed her back out and injured the fly's leg so that it would be easier for her to catch it, but now she doesn't want it anymore. I'm out of ideas. I really hope she survives the winter...

[@sunnyv2278]

Stewart How much should u feed ur jumping spiders?

[@mariefrancke6868]

The candyjar is a great idea! 🤩

[@ArmorandArtillery]

Always wondered how you got flies into enclosures. Great video!

[@desmondm728]

No desire to do this myself . . . but enjoyed watching your strategy.

[@bellaspilotro9689]

Hello! How often do you feed your jumper?

[@introgauge]

Did you say gurgle when saying google?

[@noraface9364]

How old do the jumping spiders have to be to have meal worms for treats? Also how long does it take for maggots to become flies? Thanks

[@toffeenotdog]

Jumping spiders are not fussy eaters, you can also feed then dead flies

[@nikoorlando2208]

The way he did throws the animals arounddddd

[@littleloner1159]

So my zebra jumping spider is about 5mm big, i was only able to get some house crickets and they seem big even the small ones and i am FREAKIN OUT (First spider + anxiety disorder) Can he get injured or killed What do i do if he doesnt eat him Help

[@rodneyhobbs6507]

I caught small flies by smacking at the air until they bounced off the ground then picking them up before they recover and dropping them in enclosure. He was pretty scared of the fly cus it's bigger than him so I took a small torch and a price of paper went near some food refuse and started trying to hit them with fire till it burns wings and they drop on paper. Took 3 damaged fruit flies and dropped them in this mourning. If there's problems with my strat other than torturing wild feeders please inform. I don't feel bad for the feeders they know what they did 😡.

[@StewartWoodArt]

Try putting them in the freezer for a couple of minutes, the cold will knock them out and it's easy to pick them up and place into the enclosure.

[@a.jongsma]

While watching the part of your video showcasing the kitchen towel I was remembering that sponges are not recommended due to potential bacteria buildup. Is the advise regarding kitchen towels different due to them not actually being a sponge?

[@maxroa4957]

Bro im from NYC and I lately been inspired in a jumping spider.... where can I buy one? Or a few

[@cheezypotato2975]

Don't mantis only live for s couple of months or is that wrong?

[@mikeschauerman3579]

I was very happy to see Fidget 🕷 how often do they get fresh food ?do you ever clean there poop ? Love the videos

[@StewartWoodArt]

I feed them ever two days and only clean them out when it's necessary.

[@el-dj3lh]

How do you keep your jumping spiders warm enough considering you're in the UK and they're native to much warmer climates like those in Florida? (i'm planning on getting a jumping spider but our house gets pretty cold and i'm considering getting a heat lamp to increase the ambient temperature in the enclosure)

[@z0mbiebanana9891]

Is there any bugs you can feed them that don't have a risk of flying around in your house?

[@StewartWoodArt]

Waxworms

[@noraface9364]

Can you also please give me a link to order some fruit flies. My local pet shops are useless
