A single strand would be a delight. I seem to always get a full face full of web.
That's what I like a bit less about being the first hiker to walk the trail in the morning.
Then get up at a reasonable hour, you freaking psychopath, lol. Early birds are the worst.
Oh, Bob, never change, you silly little arachnid.
Wait till you learn about spiders flying high above...
I was cleaning dishes when a lil' spider, rappelling down, came right in front of my face. Seeing the creepy shape made me jump back and scream. The spider must have been shocked by my reaction and quickly went back up. Both of us got scared!
Looking back in hindsight, the spider must have been friendly and was trying to say hi to me, but I freaked out and he freaked out!
Happened to me recently when I was just sitting at my desk with the laptop. It amazed me how it appeared right before my eyes, and not somewhere to the left or right of my eyesight.
No, thank you. No. No, no, no, no, no... No... Thank you.
Yummy!
I'm taller than most people. I'm always getting a facefull of spider webs. I love spiders, though. Anything that eats mosquitoes gets a pass to mildly inconvenience me now and again.
Are those Golden-Orb Weaver spiders ? Those things make MASSIVE webs that can catch small birds!
Also if you live in the tropics, either be friendly and cool and dont disturb them Or be gentle and cool and DONT disturb them. It is quite easy to pick off their web strands and let them rebuild a different layout not going across human paths.
In my young age I have handled these in the wild where very few humans tend to wander around. Unless you panic and try to squish them, they tend to be very docile and not at all aggressive. These things are very okay building in urban areas as much as in forests.
Not all spiders are equal. So treat nature with respect and stay the heck away unless you are some kind of scientist or specialist in spiders.

No, looks more like your run of the mill Araneus sp..
They still make pretty cool webs. Also if you want to see even more impressive webs, look up Darwin's bark spider.
Now this is pod racing!
I always figured this was to catch flying insects but running into them at face level at work is annoying as hell during summer months.
Those single strands are to keep the web up. Kind of a big deal to spiderbro.
This'll of course depend on the species, but usually the super long ones that people walk in to are the strands they use to get to a spot of their own after hatching. Many spiders just sort of yeet themselves to the wind after they hatch, attached with just that one single strand – that way all the hatchlings don't just build their webs in the same spot. A huge percentage of them don't make it, but that's the r reproductive strategy for you

I, too, have watched Charlotte's Web
I, on the other hand, had no idea what that is. Apparently one of the filmatisations of the American children's book by the same name?
were-humans? Is that like wolves that turn human on a full moon?
That's a wolfwere
I guess etymologically it would just mean man-human. So it technically works
So what would you call the thing I described?
A wolf with sporadic depression?
A manwolf?
To the spiders in my house: yes I want you to build webs and catch critters. Yes, you can use my house. But like, can you not put it in places I typically walk? Please? I don't want to destroy your houses but I literally can't see them.
You just gotta sit down and lay out some boundaries and explain what will happen if they breach those boundaries, I've got a long running civil agreement with the spiders in my house, haven't had to forcibly evict one in a very long time.
Real. I'll let spiders live if they just stay out of my space
