Good True Spider?

[8leggedfriends]

I want to know a good true spider to have that is found in the Biloxi Mississippi area?
I already have a jumping spider, I got him to eat a small cricket yesterday. He looks like a balloon.
And I want to know if there are certain places where they will hang out, and if i could set up somehting that could attract them? Does this work?

A pitfall trap will work well for most terrestrial arachnids including wofl spiders who usualy have difficulty climbing the sides, Lift rocks rotting wood and other objects that lay flat on the ground allowing the terrestrial spiders a place to hide under that would probably be your most successful method as for aboreals look for their silk drag lines in bushes and trees usualy you'll find their web which always meets at the hideaway or nest that the silk building spiders usualy hide in
