+501 Walking through a spider web is always annoying, but think about how the spider must feel. They're just hanging around, minding their own business, when all of a sudden some random human goes and pretty much destroys their home. That would suck, amirite?

I really didn't even mean it like that, but that's a good comparison. ^^

Don't they make a new web all the time anyway? Almost every night. But I heard that a while ago. Don't think you learned something new, because I don't know.

...So maybe we're just doing them a favor by tearing down their old web, since they won't be using it the next day, anyway? =P

Let me science you on about spider webs! A spider web is made of silk. Spiders have what is called spinneret glands. These glands produce the silk spiders use when they construct their webs and are located on the abdomen, usually on the bottom. The silk is very light as needed for the wind to carry it. Spiders can make sticky and nonsticky silk. The spider knows how to use both to build the most sturdy web possible. Spiders are careful when constructing webs to make it possible to stay on the parts that are not sticky to prevent themselves from becoming glued to their own web.

Getting squished by a human is annoying, but think about how the human must feel. They're just hanging around, minding their own business, when all of a sudden some random spider goes and pretty much FREAKS THE SHIT OUT OF THEM. That would suck, amirite?

XD Exactly. It's a lose-lose situation.

how could any spider know that getting squished by a human is annoying, as the first time they got squished they would most likely die.
