That's what I think of when I hear The name Daddy Longlegs. Wikipedia tells me that they're called "Jenny long legs" in Scotland and Pilib an Gheataire ("Skinny Philip") in Irish.

Skeeter eater!

Funnily enough, that Unidan copypasta is 100% correct. I don't know why, for as long-winded as it is, though, he doesn't use more taxonomic names to make it precise: jackdaws are in genus Coloeus, and crows and ravens are in genus Corvus, both under family Corvidae. The apes are the primate superfamily Hominoidea*, which Homo sapiens sits under. There, Unidan; that's all you had to say.

* To clarify, not "are in" – are. You are an ape if and only if your species is in this superfamily.

Obvs that's a skeeter eater, not a daddy longlegs. Plant is pretty.

But harvestman doesn't allie-oop into a sex pun. =(

Wait.

Unless you go into HarvestMoon r34 fanfiction.

... Nope, not going there today, lol.

Theoretically, a very small animal, or one that is quite sick and unhealthy, or basically a new born...

They may be small enough and have weak enough skin that a longlegs could actually penetrate the dermis and actually deliver a potentially troubling amount of venom.

IIRC, small rodents are things that a longlegs could potentially deliver an effective bite to... but I am not completely sure where or how exactly to draw the line.

Basically, they have a decent venom, but their fangs are quite bad at penetrating most kinds of skin... they are geared mainly toward hunting other small insects... but its not 100% impossible to harm something a bit bigger.

Would moisturizing be an acceptable alternative?

Ah, right... I forgot the flying things. Yes, for some reason they're also called Schneider

The one with the wings is clearly a "Häbbergas".

I live in the Niederrhein region and never heard the Oma/Opa Langbein term before :)
