'Moving house' for ladybug spider

The RSPB Nature Reserve has just moved Britain's rarest spider species to a new place in a plastic bottle.

Spider ladybug has red black dots. In the mid-90s, this spider was on the brink of extinction, with only about 56 individuals left in the UK.

Soon after, conservationists made efforts to save the situation when trying to replicate ladybug.

To move them, the team of scientists used empty plastic bottles with the ideal shape and size for spider nests, which contained heath and moss.

After that, people put these bottles down on the pits of Arne and proceeded to monitor their life and spider web stages when they were moved in.

For many years, scientists believed that ladybug spiders were extinct in the UK, but they were suddenly discovered in the 1980s.

They had to endure the destruction of their rich living environment. More than 90% of lowland areas - where many trees of the male agar family are turned into agricultural, forestry and commercial land, put great pressure on living organisms there, the RSPB said.
