Deadly red spiders are an aggressive species of spider. Their eggs can usually be found nearby. The spiders found in Varrock Sewers are a popular training spot for free-to-play, as they reside in a multicombat area and are aggressive to low levels (up to level 68 combat). Bringing a knife or slash weapon is mandatory to access the area.
