Spider Nest



Arachnophobics hate this biome.

Tips

 * The Dangersense Potion can be useful in locating Spider Nests, because the Cobwebs inside sparkle in a unique pattern.
 * Creating three-block-high diagonal tunnels into a Spider Nest using a hammer to slope the floor and ceiling will prohibit spiders from exiting (or entering, if they spawn outside), but not the player. This can be a good tactic to trap and easily kill spiders. Similarly, spiders can not fit into two-block-wide vertical tunnels.
 * If a player finds themselves crossing through a Spider Nest while creating a hellevator, to prevent cobwebs from generating and slowing them down during freefall, ropes or torches can be placed on the spider background walls, thus occupying the space where cobwebs would have grown. Alternatively, if the player does not want to use up torches, they may use a hammer to remove the walls instead.
 * Mining out the area, aside from the walls, may allow for a money farm to be made.
 * The quickly regrowing cobwebs can be broken and turned into Web Rope, selling for each.

Trivia

 * The biome features unique background objects, such as a human corpse covered in webs.
