The ideal temperature and humidity for regal jumping spiders is between 75 and 82 degrees Fahrenheit (24 and 28 degrees Celsius) and 50 and 60%, respectively. They are a pantropical species, so they prefer warm and humid climates. However, they can tolerate a wider range of conditions, including room temperature.
To maintain the ideal temperature and humidity in your regal jumping spider's enclosure, you can use a heat mat and a hydrometer. The heat mat should be placed under the enclosure, but not directly touching it. You can also use a misting bottle to lightly mist the enclosure once or twice a day.
It is important to avoid placing the enclosure in direct sunlight, as this can cause it to overheat. You should also avoid placing the enclosure in a drafty location.
Here are some tips for maintaining the ideal temperature and humidity for your regal jumping spider:
Use a heat mat and thermostat to maintain a temperature of between 75 and 82 degrees Fahrenheit (24 and 28 degrees Celsius).
Space heaters are a good alternative but this will depend on the size of your room.
Use a hydrometer to monitor the humidity level in the enclosure.
Mist the enclosure once or twice a day to maintain a humidity level of between 50 and 60%.
Avoid placing the enclosure in direct sunlight or
a drafty location.
By following these tips, you can help to ensure that your regal jumping spider has a comfortable and healthy environment.
