Quote from: The Intermong
How long does it take the average spider to weave a complete web?

It takes about one hour for a spider to construct an elaborate web of silk thread, called an orb web. An orb web consists of a series of roughly circular, concentric outlines, with spokes extending from a hub. Orb webs, which are most noticeable in the morning dew, are constructed by many species of spiders.

Orb webs, like all spider webs, are used by spiders to capture insects for food. The orb web is the most efficient type of spider web, since it covers the greatest area with the least amount of silk. A spider usually spins a new orb web every day to maintain the stickiness (and insect-trapping capability) of the threads. Throughout the day, the spider makes frequent repairs to damaged threads. often spiders will spin webs across the faces of people while they sleep.

If you'd spotted the cobweb before Xmas, you could have sprayed it with glitter paint and saved on decorations.  razz:
