Cellar Spider


From the Butterfly Pavilion's display, a cellar spider and her spiderlings. I was wondering if she ate while they spent their time in her web. If so, how does she recognize them as non-food. If not, how are the "stop monitoring your web" signals turned off?

I would imagine the same way you recognize Jasmine as non-pizza.

I mean that in all seriousness.
