we have quite a few in our reptile room behind things and under tables i found them to be quite agressive when disturbed
and they can populate a room quite quickly mine eat mealworms and the adult beetles and alsorts of lost crickets and stuff
i also know of one proven case where one bit and killed a poisen arrow frog
so most of the ones i now find end up in the dyson lol

Not to sure to be honest but i bought mine off Virginia and two were males which lived a matter of weeks but the females are still going strong.
