    All spiders are in fact venomous

    Are there any exceptions to this? And what about non spiders like daddy long legs?

      So, true spiders digest their food externally by injecting the venom. They then slurp it up. So the answer to that is “Yes”. Some true spiders may also eat the more solid bits, but that’s in addition to. but again, many- most- spiders are essentially harmless to humans.

      harvestmen (daddy long legs) are not venomous and lack the mouth-parts necessary for injection, but they’re not true spiders.

        Harvestmen do not possess venom glands.
