If you’ve played Grounded long enough, you know wolf spiders are one of those enemies that make you go “damn, nope” before you even see them.

They’re bigger than most Backyard bugs, they spit poison, and they don’t exactly hang out in one place.

Needless to say, they are hostile creatures that you can easily recognize, thanks to their size and the large colored V on their abdomen.

That said, wolf spiders drop valuable stuff when killed, including materials for crafting mid-tier stuff such as Spider Chunk, Spider Fang, and Spider Venom.

So, if you want to farm them for their loots, you need to where they spawn in the first place. Without further ado, let’s look at confirmed spawn locations you can actually use to hunt them:

Wolf Spider Locations in Grounded

Before anything else, you should know that wolf spiders are angry creatures that roam the yard mostly during late afternoon, night, and early morning.

They don’t just patrol randomly, but their patrol range can bring them right up to your base if you’re not careful.

Normally, they spawn in set spots scattered across the yard. There’s a bunch of them and they tend to hang out in dark or sheltered areas like under rocks, in caves, or under objects.

Wolf spiders have pretty specific spawn points you can learn by heart. They don’t spawn in every playthrough, but these spots are the ones you’ll find spiders in:

  • Under the base of the Oak Tree.
  • On top of the blue tarp on the Woodpile.
  • Inside the lid in the BBQ Spill.
  • Near the Hedge.
  • Under the Yoked Girth Head.
  • Under a pile of leaves south-east of a fallen Oak Branch.
  • Under the Plank Cliff.
  • Inside the Stump.
  • Dark area in the Undershed.
  • Upper Grasslands near the Stump.
  • Under the porch near the Hedge by the house.
  • Near the spider cave at Rake Rock Point.
  • In the Stepping Stone area between rocks.
  • Under a rock near the Upper Yard Ascent.
  • In the Sandbox inside a blue plastic sand toy.
  • Near the Samsquanch Dirt Bike wheels.
  • Right of the JavaMatic by fence and shed.
  • Right of the Jungle Anthill.
  • Under a small berry bush in Moldorc Highlands.

Players will often find multiple spiders under the Oak Tree especially early on, which makes that area a hotspot for loot and danger.

Keep in mind that wolf spiders are often dormant during the day, so sneaking up and attacking them is a solid strategy.

Their patrol paths can take them away from spawn but most will return over time.

Also, Wolf Spiders are a very strong opponent with the ability to apply Poison to the player, so caution should be exercised when facing them, as well as good armor and weapon.
