Fig growing legs

[jkuo]

I saw a couple of legs sprouting from my fig the other day. When I walked around to the other side, I saw a spider(?) with long legs giving it a hug.

The spider is trying to pick the fig. Not ripe enough, Mr Spider!

Daddy-long legs spider Hunting for small bugs, like ants or aphids. their fangs are too small to penetrate human skin

I have daddy long leggers on my figs all the time too, thought it was just me!

I've seen them several times this season. I guess I don't mind them so much if they are picking off ants. I sort of figured the worst they were doing was creeping me out when I suddenly notice legs on my figs.
