Question

Do spiders wrap flies for food?

Community Answer

Yes, some spiders do this. The spider makes a web and then the flies get stuck to it. Next, the spider wraps it up in the web and eats it.

Question

What will be cool to use to make webs for a Spider Man craft?

Community Answer

String (especially holographic or shiny string), clay, thread, doll hair, and even strings of thick glue can be a spiderweb. Any stringy-looking material will be okay, but make sure it gives off a "radioactive" effect.

Do things stick on webs?

Community Answer

No, nothing will stick on these webs. If you want something to stick, try adding some type of adhesive.

Question

Are all spiderwebs geometric? Or are some spiders lazy and just make the web loose?

Community Answer

Yep, some spiders make a loose web (although this isn't "lazy", it's just an effective way for them to get their prey). Some don't even make webs at all. Loose webs are fine, such as for the Theridiidae spider (also known as the Cobweb spider).
