did you know squirrels cannot contract nor carry the rabies virus. Time Warner inc. owns the rights to the Happy Birthday song lyrics, and you cannot sing it in a public setting without paying a fee to do so, hence why food chains have to come up with their own Birthday songs. trust me, i own useless information books, i could do this all day |

Hey now, I've known that for years. They're also some of the most poisonous species in the world, by poison to size. So if one was the size of a snake, it would be more poisonous. Also, they are not arachnids, they are insects!
Ticks are arachnids |

Depends what you call a daddy longleg. What I call a daddy longleg are actually Harvestmen. They belong to the class Arachnida, but they are not spiders and they have NO VENOM.
There's also the Cellar spider that is often referred to as the daddy longleg which has venom. "An urban legend states that Pholcidae are the most venomous spiders in the world, but because their fangs are unable to penetrate human skin, they are harmless to humans. However, recent research has shown that pholcid venom has a relatively weak effect on insects.[3] In the MythBusters episode "Daddy Long-Legs" it was shown that the spider's fangs (0.25mm) could penetrate human skin (0.1mm) but that only a very mild burning feeling was felt for a few seconds." |

Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia is the fear of long words. I just read this and found it very interesting. Honey is the only natural food that is made without destroying any kind of life. What about milk you say? A cow has to eat grass to produce milk and grass is living. |
