What is a "money spider"?
A money spider, also known as the common spider or the sheet weaver, refers to various small spider species belonging to the family Linyphiidae. These spiders are typically tiny, ranging in size from 1 to 5 millimeters, and are often associated with their habit of spinning intricate webs close to the ground. They are called "money spiders" due to the superstition that if one of these spiders lands on you, it brings good luck and wealth. Money spiders are harmless to humans and play a beneficial role in controlling insect populations. They are commonly found in gardens, forests, and other outdoor habitats, where they diligently weave their delicate webs to catch prey.
