Silk Thread

To make a house, we need wood, sand, cement, and water. But, the spiders do not need these materials, these animals need only silk thread to build a net that they will occupy as a house.

Spider webs are made in several stages.

The first stage, the spider will throw a strong net into the air. The net is usually thrown toward a bufferable object, such as a tree trunk or branch that is strong enough.
