Spider Mite Webbing
When spider mite populations get high, they will form clusters and also webbing will be seen. This webbing acts as a protective covering to the spider mites. The webbing is very fine so to aid in the ability to visualize this structure, if a fine mist of water is applied the droplets will cling to the fine fibers. In the image no water was applied and it looks like the mites are just suspended in air, but they are all attached to portions of the webbing.
