Keep finding these long legged lil bros in my home. This is bro number three so far. Any idea what they are? Super fast and hard to grab and stick in the rescue jar.

    Yeah pretty much this except black widows are pretty uncommon indoors and theyre really skiddish. Mostly only hang out under logs/rocks, so you’re unlikely to run into one. Recluses love indoors and are violent fuckers. OP is super lucky he didn’t get bit honestly.

      They are somewhat uncommon indoors, yes, but you do still see them in enclosed places like sheds and garages. I’ve also seen one hanging out at a gas pump. Of course, there are also lots of widow mimics out there that are pretty harmless to people.
