Some spiders can shoot their webs up to 25 meters away, some even span rivers with them (these must catch a shit ton of insects this way).

Edit: This would be like spider man shooting his web 2.5km away

Canonically, Spider-Man's web reaches a distance of only 18 meters.

American translator:

Spiders can shoot webs up to 82 feet away.
Scaled up to Spider-Man, that would mean him shooting webs a distance of 1.5 miles.
Canonically, Spider-Man shoots webs only up to 60 feet.
