These things are everywhere. Native to Japan, Korea, Taiwan, China, and more recently, northeast Georgia. (enlarge for best view) https://flic.kr/p/2mzwyrf

Their silk is super strong. Grab a piece and pull it from both ends. You'll be amazed.

They are for sure everywhere up here!
Crazy. All over our yard even with regular periodic spraying.
The power lines up here are lined up with them like a townhome development!

Cool video. Haven't seen any of those yet here, or on my place down on the SC/GA line, either.
