makes the largest and strongest web.The web can run from the top of a tree 6m high and up to 2m wide. Unlike other spider webs, the GW Spider's web is not dismantled often and can last several years Designed to catch large flying insects, the web is slightly angled. It is not a perfect wheel and is usually off-centre. To make its web, the spider releases a thin thread into the wind. When it catches on something, the spider walks along it trailing a stronger non-sticky thread. It repeats the process in the centre of the line to form a strong Y-frame. Around this, it spins the rest of the web out of sticky capture silk. Female is bigger and the male is only 10% of the female. You can see the male with this bigger female.( thanks google:-))
