It usually eats small insects and household pests that get caught in its web. If prey is too quick, it shoots web at it from a distance and then pulls the thread back in. Larger females can even attract baby skinks by hanging fly remains in their web.1

Dintlha

1

The assassin bug Stenolemus lanipes apparently feeds only on its young, though it can also eat adults.1

2

When food dries out, it usually drops it to the floor to free up space in its web, rather than rebuilding the web.1

3

It has poor eyesight and cannot detect movement more than three to four inches away.1

4

Males and females often share the same web for long periods, though females sometimes fight when they meet.1
