  1. Cellar spiders are interesting spiders, because they have adapted to living indoors, which if you think about it is dryer than the dryest desert, especially with AC.  They do have venom and, despite the myth about them, they can bite you.  The venom is very weak to humans though and is reported to only cause a brief burning sensation.  

    They also tend to feed off of other spiders you can find around the house, including brown recluses and black widows.  If food is scarce, they will resort to cannibalism.

    The best way to capture one is probably to get a pencil and twist it in the spider's web, and if the spider doesn't run, you could shake the spider off the pencil into a jar or glass.  The spider is likely to ditch the web and run though, at that point you could herd it into the glass or jar with a thick piece of paper.
