Twitter Webs cover the shore of Aitoliko
According to the Greek site NewsIt, the photographs published online show the network of nearly 1,000 feet stretching on a beach.
As reported by Daily Hellas, a vast area of greenery has been masked by the silver spider web produced by Tetragnatha spiders.
A giant 1,000 foot canvas mysteriously appeared overnight in Aitoliko, a city in western Greece.
Giannis Giannakopoulos noticed the "canvas veil" earlier this week and captured the creations of the spiders with his camera. They are often known as stretch spiders because they have elongated bodies – and in another disturbing development for those who fear spiders – Tetragnatha extensa is small enough and light enough to cross the water faster than on land.
Although phobias may find the presence of frightening sudden, experts say that these spiders pose no risk to humans and that they are probably enjoying favorable mating conditions. "The spiders will have their party and will die soon," added Maria.

The Greek biologist Fotis Pergantis, president of the Messolonghi Lagoon National Park, explained that there was a simple explanation.
The tiny spiders pose no threat to humans or plants in the area, Chatzaki told NewsIt, although their increasing numbers may be linked to an increase in mosquito populations. "They mate, they breed and provide a whole new generation."
Speaking to Greek news sites, molecular biologist Maria Chatzaki said that spiders are not dangerous to humans and that she should not be afraid.
Neither midges nor these spiders are risky for humans.
