I think that's not spider web. It's created by a certain pests in the media.

Why dont you start with a diluted fungicide... it might works... i believe that your sphagnum moss contains some organic material that boost the fungus to grow.

Is there any plant(s) growing in the pot? If the sphagnum moss is replaceable, suggest just blanch it with hot water. Otherwise plug out the live moss and replant, will have less fungus and spores. Spores will still remain after fungicide, need few more rounds to completely irradiate the menace. My 2 cents worth.
