It primarily inhabits warm and humid environments in Australia and displays a distinctly nocturnal lifestyle, spending the daytime hours in well protected hiding places. As an efficient predator, it uses its venom to subdue insects, other arthropods, and occasionally small vertebrates. Although its bite is generally not life threatening to humans, it can cause intense pain and requires appropriate medical treatment.
