Hello arano
It builds three-dimensional webs in dark corners. Its nest is low down, at the base of small bushes, in tufts of grass or stubble, or among heaps of loose debris, often on the ground. Unlike L. geometricus, no nest has been recorded near a building. It has also been recorded from pistachio orchards.1

This spider has neurotoxins called latrotoxins, which act on nerve endings. Within 15 minutes of a bite there is intense pain, a burning sensation and swelling. Intense muscle pain and cramps can develop about an hour later, along with anxiety, slurred speech, nausea, headache, sweating and fever.1
