The Matrix, Retold by Mom

Wow, what a strange story.

They may be spider webs but they look more like gypsy moth webs to me. Get enough of them on a tree and the larvae will eat every leaf and kill the tree.

Fascinating, especially the curbing on malaria-carrying mosquitos!

Communities of spiders with a permanent web are common in the SF Bay Area. (No, it's not a joke.)

whoever wrote this article has no idea what theyre talking about. those arent giant spider webs; theyre caterpillars. i tried to follow the source, but it led me to a dead end. we have them in georgia all the time. its a family of caterpillars who build their nests in trees and use the webs for body warmth among other things. i think it helps them preserve heat by like 70% if i recall correctly..

Spidertree, spidertree, does whatever a spidertree does...
