🌎🗡️🕷️JUMPING SPIDER HUNTING GIF CHALLENGE🕷️🗡️🌎 — Celebrate  #EarthDay  with our new video about how cute and fuzzy regal jumping spiders become fierce, ruthless hunters:  https://youtu.be/soBeDiifEAY 

------CHALLENGE: When baby jumping spiderlings first hatch, they grow up under the many watchful eyes of their mom -- eight to be exact -- but she doesn’t feed them or teach them how to catch prey. What do they eat during their first few weeks of life while they’re still in their mom’s nest? And how do they learn to hunt? 

They either don't eat anything or feed on some of the yolk left over from their egg. And they teach themselves how to hunt. 

➡️ ➡️The first 5 fans to give us BOTH the correct answers before 8am PST tomorrow will get a shoutout in the video description. Ready, set – GO!⏳

🏴󠁨󠁵󠁰󠁥󠁿🏡 FIVE GROSS HOUSE PESTS GIF CHALLENGE🏡🏴󠁨󠁵󠁰󠁥󠁿 —  We have published our special episode featuring five of the possibly worst home pests:  https://youtu.be/xbW0dUfKOkk  See how bed bugs, cockroaches, drain flies, dust mites and termites turn your home into theirs. If this video doesn’t motivate you to do some spring cleaning, we're not sure what will! 

CHALLENGE : Termites cost homeowners billions of dollars of damage every year. What’s amazing about them is that they can digest wood, which is so hard, and get nutrients out of it. Humans can’t do this. In fact, termites are one of the only animals that can. Besides bacteria in their gut, what are the other main organisms that help termites digest wood?

🌾🍚RICE WEEVIL GIF CHALLENGE🍚🌾— We've published our video about rice weevils:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4fjzj...  

Rice weevils are just like us: They love carbs, so they sneak into your pantry. Their long snout, called a rostrum, and strong mandibles are perfectly designed to pulverize your precious grains.   

------CHALLENGE:  How do most rice weevils sneak into your kitchen undetected?
They sneak in as an egg or larva inside a grain of rice. Their mothers laid the eggs when the rice was in the field or stored in a granary.
