I have found them everywhere, in my lawn grass and weeds, on the side of my house, in my window sills, inside the house. As winter comes on, they like to come inside and they can get in by any crack around windows.

As a little kid, I use to catch flies alive and feed them to the jumpers by holding them in my fingers by the wings and slowly bringing them close to the spider, until he sees it, then hold still and let him come for it. :)

Remember, they are very small, even for a spider. One could sit on your smallest fingernail and have room to spare.

:D yes, but I saw the very big jumpers. Anyway, I told my friends and some of them will ship me a lot of jumper tomorrow :D

Can I ask a question again?

What if I use 100mm macro with 1.4TC and on a cropped body (x1.6) it will be around 224mm and here is the point: will the minumum focusing distance increase? and at the same time gives me 1:1?

I have done that, but years ago. It will increase magnification, or at least make it look bigger, and you can shoot from further back.
