I grew up on a farm surrounded by many 'creatures.' Most are harmless unless
cornered. Even cornered, I never knew a 'grandaddy long-legs' to bite/sting
anyone.
But you must keep this (my comment) in context. After all, I've admitted to
buying/importing lady bugs and preying mantis. I've also been known to
bemoan the wholesale distruction of all spiders.
And ants? If they stay out of my house, I'll stay out of theirs.
