'''Webs''' are the source of [[silk]], and appear in [[cavern]]s. The web itself looks like a light-grey [[gem]], and is most often labeled as being from [[cave spider]]s, [[giant cave spider]]s, or (in [[evil]] biomes) [[phantom spider]]s. If an embark region is populated by web-making creatures, a number of its webs will be present immediately after embark, though further webs will only appear if the creature itself shows up and leaves them. | '''Webs''' are the source of [[silk]], and appear in [[cavern]]s.

It is not advised to allow weavers to randomly gather webs on maps where giant cave spiders might be lurking nearby. Certain types of [[titan]]s, [[forgotten beast]]s, and [[demon]]s also shoot webs, and just as other spider webs are found naturally in their environments, [[HFS]] may also contain demon webs. |
Webs are delicate, and can be destroyed by contact with any creature (except a dwarf that is gathering that web), or by any other rough treatment such as [[Irrigation|irrigating]], etc. It also appears that if open to the outside, [[rain]] will destroy the webs remarkably quickly. | Webs are delicate, and can be destroyed by contact with any creature (except a dwarf that is gathering that web), or by any other rough treatment such as [[Irrigation|irrigating]], etc. It also appears that if open to the outside, [[rain]] will destroy the webs remarkably quickly. | ||
