Dust?

One of our cameras sent hundreds of motion detect emails overnight a few days ago. On looking at the video it looks like dust orbs, as I have seen in other threads. However, there only seemed to be the one for about 12 hours, that hovered around the centre of the picture and then was joined by a a few others near the edges of the pictures - these new ones seemed to track the movement of the central one. Has anyone else seen these dust orbs behaving in a similar way - 12 hours seems a long time for it to float around the middle of the picture.

The monitored area is not used much and there was no sign of anything like this previously or since. The one in the middle started suddenly (just appeared) and they all stopped as soon as someone opened the main door the following day about 14 hours later.

It's not an issue, as it has only happened the once but it just looks kind of weird.

It's a Hikvision camera:

Indeed looks like a spiders partial web, with dust particles attached.
Give the camera a decent clean and the adjacent area of the camera location.

It's clearly a spider web.
