We just moved to Michigan and these are all around the property (including the basement). Just want to know if it’s something I need to be concerned about. Google lens is inconclusive, at least with my non-existent knowledge.

    Orb weaver is a classification of spiders that includes about 3,000 species, they vary significantly in size. If it makes a “classic” spider web with long strands connected in a circular pattern then it is an orb weaver.

      Its web seemed sort of haphazard with strands going in various directions. I definitely didn’t identify a web as you described it. That said, as I’ve alluded to, take my insight with a grain of salt. Thanks for the ID regardless!
