You can spray them with a hydrogen peroxide solution from what I remember.
It definitely sounds like cobweb.

I had two trays with cobweb,put peroxide on both,one of them turned out fine and the other had more cobweb on it a day later,put more peroxide and than it came back again,I just threw it away,peroxide should be a cure all for cobweb but maybe this was some other strange contam cause it didn't kill it on this casing so I just tossed it out to make room for a new casing

Use the 3% peroxide straight from the bottle. Don't dilute it. Since cobweb spreads by mycelium fragments, you need to spray the entire casing layer surface, not just the area with the Dactylium. It will often come back a couple of times over the next few days, but whack it with peroxide each time until it stays dead.
Spray enough to make the Dactylium melt completely and disappear, and spray the entire casing surface enough to make it wet, not just a mist. RR
