WillacoSpoods Hello, and a huge, fuzzy welcome to our brand-new corner of the web: Willaco Spoods!
We are absolutely thrilled to finally open our virtual doors to everyone who shares our obsession with the most charming, curious, and expressive spiders on the planet—the jumping spiders (Salticidae). These tiny, intelligent hunters deserve all the spotlight, and we created this space to celebrate them, support their keepers, and help new fans fall in love with them.
Why We Built This Sanctuary
Have you ever watched a jumping spider tilt its head, size you up with those huge central eyes, and then leap across a gap with total confidence? If you have, you already know the magic.
Our mission is simple: to create the ultimate, trustworthy resource for the jumping spider community. We noticed a need for a single, reliable hub where keepers could find clear, accurate information, beautiful photography, and a genuinely warm atmosphere.

Whether you're looking to bring home your first Phidippus regius, or you’re a veteran keeper of rare species, we’ve got something for you. Here’s a sneak peek at what’s already available (and what's coming soon!):

Let's Connect!
We believe the best communities are built through shared passion. This site isn't just about reading; it's about connecting.
We encourage you to explore the guides, tell us your favorite species, and keep an eye on our social channels (you can find the links right down in the footer!). We’ll be sharing daily photos, fun facts, and live updates there.
Thank you for being one of our first visitors. Grab a virtual magnifying glass, explore the Sanctuary, and let us know what you'd like to see next!
Happy keeping!
