SpidersWhat type of spider is this?
This was found under a large plastic child’s outdoor slide. It had spun a web approximately 12 inches across overnight. The bottom of the slide had been sprayed the previous evening. This is the best photo of that I can produce. Thank you for your assistance and your web site.

Hi Vern,
It looks like a Domestic Spider, Theridion or Achaearanea tepidariorum. It is one of the commonest spiders that is found in homes, hence it earns the common name Domestic Spider.
