      You think right: silk comes from the spinnerets, however they do use frass (poo) to improve their cobwebs.

          Sure! Frass can be used for most insect excreta, but saying that someone’s full of frass sounds just right.

          Maybe also a phrase like: “If you touch the cobwebs, you’ll get the frass”

            lol…nice. is that why cobwebs smell so musty? I used to just think they held onto the smells from the environment. now, i think it must be 💩
