Can I remove part of the web a daddy long legs has woven without harming them?

This spider has taken residence in a corner of one of the rooms, I'm not bothered by them but the web is getting a bit too big... can I just remove part of it to keep the size in check without causing harm to the spider?

Iโ€™m in the hospital and on many medications and I thought you were asking if you could remove part of the spider without harming the spider.

Hope you get well soon!

Might also have been a poorly phrased question on my part, since English is not my first language!
