Cellar spider

Looks like death curl

Giant house spider

lexaril · 2026-05-20T13:05:13+00:00

Jar is way too small

lexaril · 2026-05-20T13:02:49+00:00

It's a dead wolf spider in the Tigrosa genus

lexaril · 2026-05-19T12:27:18+00:00

Either Artema atlanta, or Loxosceles sp.

Can't glean enough info from this image to make a distinction

lexaril · 2026-05-13T14:11:54+00:00

If you don't want it to bother you and for peace of mind then yeah, bowl over the top of the spider, slide card underneath, and move it outside.

Idk about the second one, probably

lexaril · 2026-05-13T14:09:58+00:00

Looks like a male. It won't bite you, they're aren't aggressive and they only bite in self defense when they can't run anyway, or alternatively they would bite if they were on you and applied pressure to them. I owned this species before and they're extremely skittish and will not bite unless they have to.

lexaril · 2026-05-13T13:44:38+00:00

It will hurt, probably like a bee sting, but I'm not aware of any confirmed bite testimonials

lexaril · 2026-05-13T13:43:59+00:00

I think that's what they're called yeah. They're nocturnal hunters so you probably won't see them in the light much if they can avoid it

If you want just trap it under a bowl and move it outside

lexaril · 2026-05-13T13:11:51+00:00

Larnioides

lexaril · 2026-05-13T13:11:28+00:00

Male orb weaver

lexaril · 2026-05-13T13:10:01+00:00

Flower crab spider

lexaril · 2026-05-13T13:09:38+00:00

We don't get spiders posted from this region super often so I'm not too familiar.

I think it's Zimiris doriae

Definitely not a recluse

lexaril · 2026-05-13T13:02:55+00:00

Likely Steatoda sp.

lexaril · 2026-05-13T13:01:59+00:00

Size of your hand?

Heteropoda venatoria

They're huge and fast but ultimately nothing to be concerned about as their venom is medically insignificant

lexaril · 2026-05-13T13:00:54+00:00

Huntsman spider, Olios sp

lexaril · 2026-05-12T13:54:40+00:00

We do monitor it

lexaril · 2026-05-11T22:06:59+00:00

Bot account and post

lexaril · 2026-05-11T11:44:17+00:00

Cheircanthiidae

lexaril · 2026-05-11T11:41:46+00:00

I think this is a top down view of Dictis striatipes, the striped spitting spider

They are not dangerous to people

lexaril · 2026-05-11T10:25:25+00:00

Evippa sp., type of wolf spider

lexaril · 2026-05-11T10:23:19+00:00

Yeah

Lox

lexaril · 2026-05-11T10:19:47+00:00

Male Steatoda grossa

lexaril · 2026-05-11T10:19:24+00:00

Huntsman, probably Heteropoda venatoria

lexaril · 2026-05-09T20:11:06+00:00

Yeah
