Jumping Spider
Small, alert, charismatic spider with the best eyesight in the spider world. Common on exterior walls, decks, and gardens across Ontario. Will turn to watch you as you approach.
Body 4-15 mm depending on species. Compact, often patterned with bright colours or iridescent scales. Large forward-facing eyes — the giveaway feature. Move in short hops rather than running smoothly.
Sunny exterior walls, decks, fences, garden plants, window frames. Mostly outdoors but occasionally come inside through open windows. Active during the day.
No. Jumping spiders almost never bite humans. They are visual hunters and tend to avoid things much larger than themselves.
Most homeowners do not need treatment for jumping spiders specifically. If you are getting exterior perimeter treatment for other species, jumping spider numbers will drop along with everything else.
