An extraordinarily massive spider web was found in Rowlett, a suburb in Dallas, Texas, with webs covering the trees “like shrouds”, according to a local entomologist. The trees are like draped with webs up to 40 feet in height, while untold thousands of spiders dwelling in them. 

Spiders that live in such huge webs are not found to cause any problem with people.

The species is named Tetragnatha guatemalensis, and there have been past instances of its building webs in cooperation with other spiders, a rare event considers that spiders tend to be loners. “Without lots of food, these communal webs just don’t seem to form”.

Scientists do not clearly know how the spiders build those massive webs, but the scientists believe that a spider belonging in the Tetragnathidae family could be responsible for the surprising site.

Fortunately, while undeniably freaky, the ginormous webs’ occupants isn’t a danger to humans and are essentially harmless, Merchant said.

These spider species also make up the majority of the inhabitants of such extraordinary webs, with millions of them, making up the largest webs, although there could be many other types of species within them.
