    Craig Caudill and Blake Newton, an entomologist at the University of Kentucky, discuss the misconceptions about harvestmen, commonly known as "granddaddy long legs." Harvestmen are not spiders and lack venom, despite being mistakenly called the most venomous spider. They have about 20 species in Kentucky and 15,000 globally. Newton also clarifies that black widows and brown recluse spiders are the only medically significant spiders in Kentucky. He emphasizes the importance of tick prevention and proper removal, noting that most biting mosquitoes in Kentucky are invasive species. The conversation also touches on the broader entomology, including the impact of habitat loss on insect populations and the potential of insects as a food source.
