Types of Spider Webs

SPIRAL ORB WEB
Spiral orb webs are what most people associate with spider webs. They are the large, circular webs that have a strong resemblance to wheels. They are easily recognizable by their spoke-like segments that meet in the middle of the web.

Spiders who weave these webs typically belong to the Araneidae family. These spiders like to keep their webs outside in forests and gardens.

Spiders will either wait on the web or hide nearby for their prey to land. If you aren’t quick, you’ll miss these webs. Orb Weavers typically take their webs down and rebuild it every night.
