How do i get rid of daddy long legs we are infested!?
I thought Daddy Long Legs were the adults of the crane fly, and not spiders as other respondents have mentioned – perhaps it is a name given to some sort of spider in the US. They are the adult form of the leatherjacket, which lives on the roots of grass in fields and lawns. They are quite harmless, but can be irritating if flying into the house in the evening – keep the windows shut, or the lights off and you won’t be bothered. They are very fragile creatures, and joss sticks or mosquito coils burning will kill them in one. Another species that is sometimes called Daddy long legs is the Harvestman, but I have never seen these anywhere but in fields.
