What the cat faced spider eats?

The cat-faced spider (Araneus gemmoides) is a type of orb weaver spider. Like most orb weavers, their diet consists primarily of flying insects.

Here's what they typically eat:

* Moths: These are a common prey for cat-faced spiders, especially during the nighttime.

* Flies: They also readily catch house flies, fruit flies, and other flying insects.

* Beetles: Larger beetles can be caught by larger cat-faced spiders.

* Other small invertebrates: They might occasionally catch other flying or crawling insects like grasshoppers, crickets, or even other spiders.

Their webs are quite large and sticky, making them effective traps for flying insects. They wait patiently in the center of their web, ready to pounce on unsuspecting prey.
