Joro Spider or Garden Spider? How to Tell Them Apart

Описание: Big yellow spiders are showing up everywhere, but not all of them are the invasive Joro. In this video, I visit a few of the large orbweavers you might encounter in the southeast this time of the year:

The familiar Garden Spider
The bold Golden Silk Orbweaver
The shy Spotted Orbweaver
And the newcomer, an invasive species from Asia, the Joro Spider

We'll examine how to distinguish between them, what makes the Joro unique, and why it matters for our local ecosystem.
