Simple: A dust web is made of particles of dust and dirt and other things such as leaves, just natural things. A spider web however, is made out of a special kind of silk that most Spiders naturally produce and use to create/spin their webs.

Dust webs are called "cob webs" and are actually produced by the cob spider. The eventual collection of dust on old webs produces the look of old dust webs frequently found in abandoned homes.

A spider web is a lot thiner, not nearly as strong, and it's made from spider silk. A net is thicker than a spider web and it's a lot stronger too.

Is a cob web a spider?

Both Cobweb and Spider web refer to the silken threads spun by a spider. The meanings are identical. However the word "cobweb" can also be used to mean a single thread spun by a spider, whereas spider web tends to be used to describe a multi strand pattern. On saying this, the actual definition defines both "cobweb" and "spider web" as being the same, with little or no difference between them. A cobweb also refers to a web that is no longer in use by the spider that made it for what ever reason the spider has moved on.


How does a cobweb form?

The speed at which a spider weaves a web is dependent on the size and location of the web as well as the size of the spider. A spider can typically create a web up to 20 times the size of their body. A well organised web can be created in 15-20 minutes. One that has to cover large gaps will take longer.
