I walked outside a second ago and saw a spider retreating into it's web. I can't get to the spider because it looks like it's actually living behind one of the pieces of siding and I have no idea how to take it off. Anyways, I'm not sure whether I saw the underside or the back (I'm assuming it was the back) but I saw bright red. When I tore the web (funnel shaped, and pretty good sized) apart to try to figure out what it was, the web was EXTREMELY thick. I was poking at it with a stick and there were areas that I couldn't break. I also noticed at least 5 other dead spiders in the web. From the looks of it they were either wolf spiders or grass spiders. I live in South Carolina, charleston area and I'm worried that this may be poisonous. It's less than a foot from our front door (where I was sitting and smoking) and we have a small dog and cats. Does anyone have any idea what this could be, or links to sites I could find some more information? I would really appreciate it!
