This article is about an older version of DF.

A cave spider is a type of Template:L. It produces Template:Ls that can be collected and Template:L into Template:L.

Cave spiders can be annoying and beneficial at the same time. They will usually hang out around underground areas like Template:L or underground water sources. They will leave webs around these areas or even in your fortress that can be collected via the 'collect webs' job at the Template:L, which is created automatically when webs are around. They can be annoying because they will bite the occasional pet or dwarf, though they're only mildly Template:L.

If you have Template:Ls around your fortress, they will hunt cave spiders down without mercy just like any other vermin, and this can be a bit annoying if you want those webs. You can attempt to solve this problem by confining all unattached cats using Template:Ls or Template:Ls and eliminating cats that have adopted a dwarf, but this approach can cause happiness issues, and migrants will continue to introduce pet cats to your fortress.
