Web-building spiders use sticky webs as traps to hunt.

Without their webs, they cannot catch prey.

They may move freely on their webs but are slow when not on them.

They might periodically rebuild or repair their webs to maintain their hunting efficiency.

These spiders may have very bright and conspicuous body colors or patterns to attract prey to their webs.
