Crane flies - or Daddy Long Legs! - Not Dragon Flies!

[Sark79]

I like them, they are my friends.   It is better to open the windows and persuade them to fly out. 

I tried that one - they had a nice big door to go out of, but still wouldn't budge. Infact, all their brothers and sisters came and joined the party too! That's when i decided to take it into my own hands!

Did they look similar to each other?     I once had a lengthy conversation with a Wasp about the rugby, he was an interesting fella, but perhaps a little quiet.  Stupidly I mistook his girlfriend for his sister which caused a bit of bad feeling. He then tried to sting me.  Little rascal he was

Don't get me started on bee's and wasp's!

I hope your not serious sark lol... all insects, right pain in the ****!

More spiders = Less insects.

They munch the buggers.

A greater number of 8 legged things that crawl on the ground makes for less 6 legged buzzy things that fly in the air.

Anything that goes buzz should be sentenced to death.

Daddy Long Legs.....



Mummy Long Legs.....

[Trace]

I detest Daddy Long Legs - Ive had more sleepless nights off them bloody things than anything - EVER.  Buzzing around in my room, attacking me when I'm asleep.

I've just realised I had a fight with one just last night, I must of obliterated it though as there was no evidence on me or my bed this morning.

Death to all DLL's!!


P.S.  I do feel tight killing them, but my sleep is more important!

i couldn't agree more with you trace... while they set up there RSPCDLL i suggest we create a countergroup, DTADLL. Who's with me!

Maybe the Daddy long legs tennis tour?

[North Angel]

I'm with you there Trace, but I sleep with the bedroom window open and they are everywhere,

but now I take Bailey to bed with us, and she has fun trying to catch them.  

This is Bailey below my new baby   8wk old pure white kitten.

i usually throttle daddy long legs - however last night i took you point of view , opened the window and tried to shoo it out.
2 wasps flew in and as i have only 1 good eye at the monment i fell over the chair and banged my elbow trying to get them out.

i now have a bad eye , a sore elbow and i have 2 wasps and a daddy long legs in the house somewhere, wife is pregnant and cant tell her these facts..

Ahhh right so.

I'm a little out of touch with mainstream society. Forgot how long we like to gestate for.

I read/heard somewhere that hey have the most potent venom in the world.

They just dont have enough of it 

That's actually the daddylonglegs spider - not the crane fly, but yes, they do.

I must admit to hoovering one up this morning , and took great pleasure in doing it  ;angelic;
