As we already know, most spiders are indeed predators (carnivores) and their main prey is insects.

Each type of spider has developed in its own way to catch its prey. For example, a weaver's spider will create silk webs between leaves and twigs, in front of rock fractures, in the corners of buildings, and others to catch flying insects into their prey.

Some profit spiders do not make nets, but attack or hunt their prey (jumping spider), or even lure it into a noose. Spiders of this type are usually more active, they explore the trees, the sidelines of grass, or the surface of a rocky wall to find its prey. This spider can catch up and jump to pounce on its prey.

Here are some pictures of spiders in my collection that are catching their prey.
