Tarantula Fun Fact #1: Web Size
Spider webs are one of the smallest things a human can perceive with the naked eye of average eyesight. The human's limit of sight are 0.1 millimeters (100 micrometers) while the smallest web width is around 0.3 millimeters (webs range to around 0.3-0.8 millimeters width). But typically, tarantulas have thicker webbing than other spiders because of how the webs are extremely similar to cobwebs when spread about the floor. Now, I'm not particularly saying that spider webs are the 2nd smallest things we can see and that there are sizes around the egg cell like dust particles that can be seen in the sunlight or particularly small crumbs. Fun-fact inside a fun-fact: The upmost tiniest thing a human can see is a human female egg (female eggs are the biggest cell in the human body) and that sperm cells are the smallest cells.
