The daddy long-legs spider is a small spider with very long, thin legs. It lives indoors in quiet, dim corners of homes, cellars and garages, and it is found in most temperate countries on every continent. It is valued because it hunts other spiders, including the dangerous redback spider.1

Ano ang kinakain nito?
It eats insects, other spiders and small invertebrates. Unlike many spiders that wait for prey to blunder into their webs, it often leaves its web to hunt spiders and their eggs. When prey is scarce, both males and females will eat each other.1

Paano ito makikilala

  • Small body, about 6 to 10 mm long in males and 7 to 8 mm on average in females, not counting the legs.1
  • Eight very long, thin legs covered in fine grey bristles. The legs are about 5 to 6 times the length of the body.1
  • Translucent grey or pale brown body, with a dark spot on the back of the front body part and dark, blurred spots on the top of the rear body part.1
  • Eight eyes: a pair of small dark eyes at the front, followed by three rows of pairs of larger eyes.1
  • Loose, horizontal webs with many irregularities, often tangled with the webs of other spiders.1

Madalas mapagkamalang: It is often called 'daddy long-legs', a name also used for crane flies and harvestmen. Crane flies are insects, and harvestmen belong to a different group of arachnids (the order Opiliones), so they are not spiders.1

  • Huwag kailanman hawakan, hulihin o asarin ang ligaw na hayop, kahit maliit, at kahit mukha itong tulog o patay.
  • Bigyan ito ng espasyo. Kung makasalubong ka ng isa, manatiling kalmado, dahan-dahang umatras at hayaan itong umalis.

Mga fact

4

Its silk has been reported to have potential medicinal uses.1

Myth buster

Mito: Daddy long-legs spiders cannot bite humans because their fangs cannot get through human skin.

Totoo: Their fangs are about 0.25 mm long, and human skin is about 0.1 mm thick, so they can bite. Bites are very rarely reported, and they cause only mild stinging.1
