I’ve browsed and browsed your fabulous website for a match for this spider that I keep finding in my house. there are some almost-like-it pictures but none that I can definitely identify as the one. could you set my mind at ease or let me know if having this spider in my house is a risk? they are rather large and fast and freak me out a bit, though this one was rather calm. I think he must have just had some traumatic event happen in which he lost a leg. I put him in the garden. thanks and keep this great thing going. I enjoy your site immensely.

Hi Amy,
This is one of the Funnel Web Spiders also known as Grass Spiders, genus Agelenopsis. They are harmless. Thank you for releasing it. You’re our kinda gal.
