This week, we discuss the enigmatic pheromones that male spiders use to track down females ready for mating. We also learn about the courtship strategies by orb-weavers and wolf spiders, known for their gazelle-like drumming patterns and wave-like rhythm during courtship. We also discuss Lauren's test of Tiktok's viral spider-attracting lotion on her female wolf spider.

One hilarious strategy is that of the male nursery web spider, who bring presents to females to enhance their chances at mating. From prey handily wrapped in silk (or stones!), discover how these sneaky beings employ distraction techniques and pheromones in their mating rituals.

The episode also reserves a section for a lively discourse about 'Spood Bachelor' - our unusual spider matchmaking session, where we delve into fascinating inquiries about spider maturity and predictions about this year's potential bachelorettes.

Join us in this special Valentine's Day episode of Spoodcast :D Cited is the book "All You Need to Know About Spiders" by W. Nentwig.
