does any body know how to care for trap door spiders?
im thinking of getting one but i need to know all their basic
needs. im also very curious how to make their trap doors,
do you have to put down alot of substrate and they'll make it their self or do you dig a hole for them.

thx,
jake

Well.....This is one of my favorite spiders. lol

I would put 6 to 8 inches of bedding....Potting soil(clean) works great. Some mix a sand in it too.

They will do all the work. They make the tunnels and the trap door. Once that is done you rarely will see him/her again lol
