Hello,
I have some what of a infestation of this particular spider on the sides of my house. They live in a area down in between my house(foundation) and the dirt. I was watering one day and sprayed some water down into this area and the side of my house was soon covered in these tiny guys. I'm kinda really freaked out by these guys and wanted to know if I should be worried about getting bit by them. I live in Denton, Texas if that helps any and they just seem to live down into these crevices around my house, also under my patio slab. There are tons of them and they seem to be more active at night. Also I have seen no webs from these guys. I hope that covers it! I appreciate any information!
Thank you!

This looks more like a short-legged harvestman (Opiliones - http://www.pbase.com/tmurray74/image/76554382) than a true spider. Most harvestmen have very long legs and mat be known as daddy long-legs. They all are harmless.
