The daddy-long-legs is an insect. It has six legs and wings. I think it lays its eggs in water, but don't quote me on that. Also called the crane fly. It is not poisonous!

No they are not. On the show, "Myth Busters" they resolved that question. Black Widow and Brown Recluse are very poisonous.

here is the truth : the daddylonglegs has the most poisonous venom but is delivered in too insignifigant amounts to harm a large mammal

Nope, it injects a veom, but its not deadly to humans because there is not enough of it, and there fangs cant penetrate human skin.
But to most of its usual prey, it is as deadly as most other spiders.

Don't know about the most poison, but I heard that somewhere too. I think it was on "Believe it or Not".
