Hi Reb Yidd,
The ones that I’m referring to are spiders. They are in the Family Pholcidae Class (Arachnida).
Crane flies, fly and don’t look anything like spiders, 6 legs.
I haven’t seen the harvestmen in a house before, although with the 8 legs that are long, superficially I guess one could be easily mistaken, without looking that the body is one piece, rather than a constricted “waist” like the spiders.
The article also mentioned that their “fangs” are too small to puncture human skin.
link removed, sorry
“Pholcidae, commonly known as cellar spiders, are a spider family in the suborder Araneomorphae.
Some species, especially Pholcus phalangioides, are commonly called daddy long-legs spider, granddaddy long-legs spider, carpenter spider, daddy long-legger, or vibrating spider. Confusion often arises because the name “daddy long-legs” is also applied to two distantly related arthropod groups: the harvestmen (which are arachnids but not spiders), and crane flies (which are insects).”
