we had just cleaned our cupboards out, and about a week later we pull a cookie sheet out of our cupboard, and in the one side of it was a ton of these little globular things, possibly eggs? reddish-black in color, and held in place with a bit of strange looking webbing. not normal, constructed webbing, but like a thousand criss-crossed hairs holding the gooey things in place.

please, can anybody identify these?

we live in N.C., if that makes any difference, and the cookie sheet was in the cupboard under our stove.

Thank you so much for your time
