Harmless Daddy Long Legs

Have you heard Daddy Long Legs are poisonous?

It's not true, these arachnids often mistaken for spiders, are like ladybugs, good to have in your garden. Daddy Long Legs spiders feed on small insects, fungus, dead organisms and fecal material. They're also a bit of a change artist. Daddy Long Legs can also detach their legs which will continue to walk away and confuse would-be predators. They also have special glands that act as a repellent against ants.
