Ok, so the spiders didn’t really drink Dew, but they did eat flies injected with Caffeine and other drugs, then made their spider web producing some of the strangest looking webs!
We created an interactive tool that demonstrates what certain drugs do to spiders based on actual university tests, see our Spiders On Drugs page! You’ll be surprised 
Sam…it is a scientific experiment I imagine. The effects of the drugs to show why we should not do the drugs. It is not a poor little thing…and unless I see video evidence of him injecting the fly and the spider eating it…I don’t buy this at all. I have seen many a spider web, and they just look like they have been catching prey in it.
The LSD web that “he forgot an important part”…the important part is actually there, it is just a really fine web connecting them.
What i don’t get is why a person would want to put a spider on drugs that is harming the spider and could most likely kill the poor thing, i mean sure if you wanna agitate the spider go ahead and be the one who gets bit.
you should put a spider on steroids he might get biger then make a really big web
If they had the spider using crack, he wouldn’t have even made a web I bet. Just would have looked around for some more bugs filled with cocaine
My friend Dave does a lot of acid, you should see the webs he spins!
What are the spiders of the Adirondacks? Any poisonous species?
I am absolutely amazed at how the web changed so much with the drug induced flies! I am a school teacher and will be using you research in my classroom. Thank you!
They could put two spiders on the same web and give the other one some rohypnol and the other one some alcohol and see what happens…
A nice addition to the webs created by spiders on dew or other drugs would be xanax.
I’m guessing that a spider on Xanax would forget to even build a web!
I am sure happy about this article about spiders on pot, this is really something, and it’s great too, I’m glad for the spiders to have gotten such nice webs and they got stoned too.
