Hotter temperatures in Britain are providing perfect living conditions for non-native spiders arriving on shipping vessels from regions like the Caribbean and Australia. These invasive species could outcompete native spiders, leading to their demise.
'Tied in to the warming of the climate, different species can get a hold in particularly areas and change ecosystems quite quickly,' said Dr. Helen Smith, highlighting the impact of climate change on the influx of exotic spiders in Britain.
