Luckily Hobo spiders aren't aggressive.
Individuals construct a funnel [wikipedia.org]-shaped structure of silk sheeting and lie in wait at the small end of the funnel for prey insects to blunder onto their webs. Hobo spiders sometimes build their webs in or around human habitations. They will normally avoid contact with humans unless accidentally crushed or squeezed.
The toxicity and aggression of the hobo spider are currently disputed by arachnologists. One common name, the aggressive house spider may arise from a misinterpretation of the Latin [wikipedia.org] name agrestis, (lit. "of the fields") as "aggressive". If a hobo spider is tending an egg sac, it may become aggressive if it perceives the egg sac as being threatened.[8] [wikipedia.org] However, they generally do not bite unless forced to protect themselves.
