Hello fellas. I got this one. Turfgrass is my life. 100 percent. Went to school to get a turfgrass management degree, it's a real thing. 4 year bachelor of science degree. I work on golf courses and have for years. I distrust the federal govt as much as the next guy here but these are arthropod creations. Either spiders or webworms. Spiders and more specifically spiderlings can "fly" by letting out long thin strands of web and letting the breeze take them where it may. They can travel many miles and get pretty far up in the air too. They do this so mommy and daddy spider don't eat them. Angle of sun shows different amounts of detail throughout the day

Came to say this. Pretty sure these spiders are in charolets web or something like that I remember reading about as a kid.

There is this awsome thing called google that I'm sure you can take info given and get confirmation throuh there.

Oh really. Seems to me op could have simply googled this instead of putting it up here as a "conspiracy" and would have found it to be from migratory spiders. Soon as I read ops discription its all I could think. I live in southern arizona far from where there stypes of spiders are common and I've seen them. I shall be back with a link if you insist but part of being a critical thinker is doing your own research not just trusting what is thrown at you.

Edit: Downvotes for the truth gotta love this sub.

DO YOUR OWN FUCKING RESEARCH. IT'S NOT THAT HARD.

I will not believe this man's word until you link me to another man who said it first!

So here it is

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ballooning_(spider)

One google search.

You want a source? I got one from a guy with a 4 year turf management degree, yeah it really exists! Anyways, he's been working for golf courses for years, and believe me he knows his stuff. He answered pretty much this same question on here not too long ago, let me see if I can dig it up.

http://www.reddit.com/r/conspiracy/comments/1qn1sm/has_anyone_been_looking_at_the_grass_lately/cdei476

So just so we are clear I didn't ask for proof I told op to google it he demanded source from you, I returned with the proof/link you just replied to. I was in agremnt with you not saying you were wrong. Hopefully this cleared it up for you. Also worth note is the fact that op deleted comments and post.

I replied to the wrong one, I agree and am tired of people whining for sources and asking for the burden of proof for little BS and for big conspiracies that would require you have the insider information on the CIA which no one has ever had. Sometimes you just want to type something quickly without backing it up with links and sources proving the existence of spiders. Carry on.

I knew what it was as soon as reading the discription and all I could think is why didn't they learn this in school, unless they havnt reached that point.

Stop acting like a psychotic child. Why don't you post an actually good picture of proof? The burden of proof is on you. People like you are the worst.

Fucking Google it you stupid faggot.

i searched for videos of spiders letting out strands of web to "fly" on them and i found a couple www.youtube.com/watch?v=2T1N2_I8hHQ

it doesn't prove that they aren't spraying something as there are a lot of other indications as well that they are but it seems the "species of spiders fly on strands the shoot out so these might be the landed strands" is plausible

Upvote for the only level headed response in this string of hostile comments, op just wanted people to cite sources and the corporate cocksuckers of conspiratard flip out. Op's hit a nerve seems like a good indication to keep digging

I've never seen it this extreme...looks like this thread is being down voted...so curious. /S

If this thread dies, just repost the link in a submission. If link has already been submitted, make self post with this video and some other one linked and add some words to pretty up the post so it gets views. There's multiple ways to get something to the front page here.

I wish I could have taken a time lapse of the aerosol blitzkrieg over me today...

It is eery to see these webs falling from the sky during millitary aerosol release.---try as you might to avoid touching them, we're all playing host to Morgellons. I see these long strings just dangling or caught up-definitely these aren't all spiders' webs.

I do lots of perennial gardening and see stuff like what you are describing all the time. It very well could be spiders migrating or it could be something that is being sprayed. I also see lots of strange things happening to the leaves of trees and plants here in Michigan, after days of chemtrail spraying. This summer and last, we had holes burned through leaves and strange clear crystalline drops on fallen leaves. The crystalline spots turned a golden color after a few days and actually grew larger. The leaves themselves were a dark black and fell from otherwise healthy treetops. I took pictures of chemtrails almost every day for a couple of years but have pretty much given up getting anyone to pay attention to this. It's kind of like the Fukushima radiation problem. Most of this country is pretending like it's not happening.

I heard vinegar can sometimes work to protect you from chem trails. Might be worth a try to spray it around next time this starts to happen.

Morgellon's is real.

take a sample and ask a friend with a compound microscope at a local school to take a look at it under the scope. I'm curious.

you are describing exactly something i had a memory of from years ago and wondered if it was a false memory. i remembered going outside and the grass was covered in thin spiderwebs and i wondered how the spiders had covered so much grass so quickly because i hadn't noticed the webs the day before... it's too bad that i didn't find someone to point it out to right then and there and ask what they thought, i just shrugged and went on my day

Howdy! When I was in Texas during the summer, I noticed the ants down there would leave a shiny trail. I assumed it was their trail pheromones or something. It was pretty cool. Maybe you have a lot of ants crawling all over the grass?

Have you tried to touch it? I remember reading about a weird substance that looks like spider web that dissolves and leaves an oily residue. I think it was called Angels Tears or something like that. it falls from the sky at night.

[deleted]

are they still on the grass? take some pictures and touch them and report back to us.

Not to sound like im giving orders, but youre the only at this moment that can put on their journalist hat and share whats going on.

[deleted]

God speed. If you have access to a lab or know someone who does, take some and throw it under a microscope. ill bet my bottom dollar that theyre toxic in large enough doses

[deleted]

got them, thanks man!

i can vaguely make them out, but i do see them. Very odd, and you said nothing happened when you touched it?

Looks like i got some researching to do when i get home

either brownbottle is remembering the name wrong and they weren't called angel tears or they are making something up because i can't find anything in quick online search about what angel tears supposedly are, there would be some conspiracy posts about them or some "chemtrail debunking posts" if it was a known substance called angel tears

eta this article that someone else here posted about mystery filaments falling from the sky says that some people have speculated they are spider webs or "angel hair"

Oligonychus araneum. Grasswebbing mites. Relax.

Thank you for this. By far the most ludicrous post on this sub. The original OP is either 8 yrs old or lives in a hole.

I dunno, I've seen some pretty ludicrous things here. Surely somebody just being ignorant of a moderately uncommon infestation and implying that it may be part of a conspiracy isn't the most ludicrous thing you seen here.

[deleted]

It's not a "phenomena". It's just hysterical that the first place you decided to go was /r/conspiracy.

[deleted]

Look up the definition of conspiracy while you are at it.
