I was wondering how do you keep your Segestria species? My friend is interested in owning them but couldn't find any care info, only what their natural habitat is like

It's just in the piece of cork bark I found it in on top of a bit of substrate. It kept itself for god knows how long in the cork bark so it must know what it's doing.

Found some old pics of my orb weaver. Almost 2.5 years ago. Happily I got some videos of her so I'm chuffed.

They're fantastic little curious buggers.

How long do they live on average? My biggest gripe about keeping true spiders is that they just don't live very long.

I'm honestly not sure. Not long though compared to a T. 12-24 months I think. Don't let that put you off though. What doesn't seem long to us is their life in its entirety. And it could be a great one with you.

I've got a related tube web that I keep in a 32oz. deli. Two pieces of corkbark leaning together, dry substrate, and a water dish. That's all they seem to need. I drop a cricket in on her webs every two weeks and she's molted twice in the past ten months.
