Can Cave Spiders go through Slabs

keckcaves Caves

Cave spiders, known for their ability to navigate tight spaces, have the remarkable capability to squeeze through small openings, including slabs. Despite their relatively large size, these arachnids can contort their bodies and flex their legs to fit through narrow gaps. This ability is mainly due to their exoskeleton, which allows them to compress their bodies and maneuver through confined spaces. While cave spiders can fit through slabs, it’s important to note that they typically prefer natural crevices and cracks in rocks or caves as their preferred habitats.

However, if a slab has any openings or cracks, it is possible for cave spiders to exploit these weaknesses and find their way through. This adaptability and flexibility in navigating various environments is one of the reasons why cave spiders are successful in surviving and thriving in different habitats.
