… if we never walk through them and flail them down with our arms?
Judy and I were on the deck watching a web high in the avocado tree. There was a spider maintaining it and running out and back to collect stuff. This went on for quite a while, then suddenly the web started disappearing. The spider was taking it down! All that web, and it only took him about four trips around it and it was gone. It didn’t look like he was balling it up and rolling it away, it looked like the web was disappearing. We googled it. Sure enough, spiders will consume their own webs when they’re through with them, to recycle the ingredients for spinning more webs.
