Ornithologists’ help to spiders: Factors influencing spiders overwintering in bird nesting boxes
Original language description
Nesting boxes are often used to support hole-nesting birds, but are also attractive as a shelter for many invertebrates, especially for overwintering. We studied assemblages of spiders overwintering in nesting boxes in a lowland forest and the factors influencing their abundance and activity during winter. The results show that the majority of arboreal spider species use nesting boxes to overwinter and that their abundance increases with the presence of nest material. Some spider species are also active at low temperatures in winter and can resettle emptied nesting boxes during the winter season. By hanging nesting boxes on trees, ornithologists support not only hollow nesting birds, but also overwintering spiders.
