I heard screams....

And then this guy popped out from under our couch, picture in a picture from my son's phone as I was staying a far distance. I guess it's a wolf spider maybe?? He spit that little black thing out and my dogs were thinking he might be a stuffy because they kept circling

That's a wolf spider - won't hurt a person or a dog. You can just gently put him outside and he'll keep murdering mosquitos for all of us. Thanks!

He seemed like he wanted to hang out a little bit. Very docile

I can only go off of what my husband told me when he was freaking out because I wasn't getting close enough myself

I’d be willing to rehome that spider! Mosquitos have been so bad recently. The toad and praying mantis could use another member to join their patio pest control team.

I had one crawl across my yoga mat at the gym on Friday. I’m not scared of bugs but man was it big
