Another name applied to the Daddy Long Legs is: Harvestman. I'm not sure where the Harvestman name comes from. Some names don't make any sense to me. Those little bugs that look like tiny armadillos and roll up into a ball when touched - known as wood-lice, sow-bugs, and pill-bugs - my mother used to call "cheesy-pigs". But I digress! I looked up the Daddy Long Legs in an Ontario Bug Guidebook, and it says they're not venomous, and nobody knows how the story that they are venomous got started.
