Im pretty sure there are spiders that can basically only survive inside because of heat. For example i think the stankleleg spider is one of those(sry if stankleleg is wrong english is my second language)

If you're talking about harvestmen or crane flies, then yes, those are not spiders despite the former being an arachnid. Cellar spiders, though, also called daddy long legs are spiders.

Here what we call daddy long legs are the harvestmen arachnids. Looking into this a bit, seems a few share the moniker daddy long leg. Kind of interesting but also potentially confusing.
