I'm thinking this might be a Daddy Long Legs, but when I googled it, it looked the spiders had segmented bodies. This guy doesn't. The 2nd pair of legs from the front are also way longer than its other legs.

It's actually not a spider .. look at it this way .. if we didn't have Mother Natures garbage disposals we'd be neck deep in carrion.

My thoughts exactly.

No, they aren't spiders but they are arachnids.
