    You know when you can see, on a summer's morning or evening, the dew in the grass on say a football pitch or in a field, and it's like cobwebs, is there a name for that?

    Or what is it?

    Thanks.

    It IS cobwebs with dew laced on them. We used to bend a hawthorn twig and gather them in it when we were children; they are so visible.

    Thanks guys.

    But cobwebs come from spiders, right? There must be an awful lot of spiders in the fields around me.

    Funny guys!

    Yes there are; thousands I mean.

    When we had the poly tunnel it was crawling with spiders.

    Don;t have the statistics on how much a spider spins but am sure that someone here can tell us..;)
