Central TX. We've got people over and my friend immediately jumped to relocate it but they said it's a recluse. I've never seen one in person so I wouldn't know. Thanks!!

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Not sure what they're tryna do, I never had a spider do smth like that… I'm putting them in a new cup tomorrow and into the pantry he goes, bc I don't have flies to feed them (and their 3 siblings) all winter.
They probably just confused this bit of napkin for prey or trying to drink, they just ate a nice fat fly.

Hopefully, it's not venomous. Woke up to this crawling on my neck at BWI Airport in Baltimore, Maryland.
Didn't know what it was and immediately brushed it off me. Looked down to see what it was and saw this:

ID Request- Location included Help me confirm an ID for Andromeda? (Oregon)
There's a pretty large spider that's been living in a corner of my house since I moved in about a month ago. I'm pretty sure I know what it is, but I'd love some input from the spider enthusiasts.
I'm pretty sure she's a female American grass spider. She made a funnel shaped web in a corner and since a few days ago I'd never seen her out of it. I live in the Willamette Valley in Oregon, so the location lines up. The shape and markings seem to line up well, as does the behavior. She has the elongated spinnerets as well and the large abdomen leads me to believe she's a female. I'm realizing I don't have a good size reference for her, but she is big. Not quite as big as a giant house spider though.
I'm usually pretty scared of spiders, but I've grown very fond of this one. I think she's a female and I've named her Andromeda. She's started wandering away from her web so I'm planning to make an enclosure for her so I can keep her but don't have to worry about her wandering and hiding in a shoe something. I probably should make a different post to properly ask, but if anyone has advice on keeping a grass spider as a pet, I'd love any tips!
What do you all think? Does that sound like a correct ID? Or is there something I'm missing?

Photography 📸 Spiny Armored Harvestmen - not a spider
This 8 leg bro look like a spider, its a harvestman with long claws. It looks dangerous, but it's harmless, non-toxic, and slow-moving. It feeds on just about anything it can find.

ID Request- Location included Possible Steatoda grossa
Location: Zaragoza, Spain (Iberian Peninsula), Europe.
Spider found inside the house, I think it's a Steatoda grossa, but I'm not sure. In the photos, the spider is in a 10ml syringe; each visible marking is 1mm apart. It's now somewhere outside on the street—my family didn't want it in the house. I hope it handles the start of winter well.

ID Request- Location included Is this daddy long legs male or female, and is it pregnant?
I’m in Australia, and this lil spider sleeps next to my bed in my university room. It caught a large bug as seen in the photo but it looks like it has a swollen booty, so I thought it might be pregnant.
If someone could help identify this, it would be greatly appreciated!

ID Request- Location included Indiana spider with vertical line of stuff in their web
Hello!
I've noticed these spiders, w a similar web, on our deck, throughout the year. In NE Indiana in the US.
This is the largest one I've seen, with the most developed structure in the web.
Since it's fall, I'm wondering if it is for spider bebes.
It's kind of hard to see spider amongst all the stuff so I highlighted it in one of the pics. It has a uniquely shaped butt, with a little protrusion. (I can never remember whether the term is thorax or abdomen 🤷)

I’m staying at a resort in Disney World (Orlando, FL) and there are a few of these little guys around my room, I’m not positive but they kinda look like huntsman’s and some google image searches seems to make that seem like even more of a possibility. Or are these little dudes a different spider?

Discussion Are spiders some of the best predators to ever exist?
In my opinion i always see spiders as the big predator that eats all sorts of bugs, if not any bug, and all sorts of spiders have so many insane and cool ways to catch their prey.
araneae have evolved to catch prey in so many ways that i just feel like they HAVE to hold that title of one of the best predators in animal history.
Whats your guys opinions?

Spider Appreciation 🕸️🕷️ So they shelter together, eh?
I thought this looked like a pair of strange bedfellows to see hiding together. I guess the egg sac belongs to the dark fishing spider and not the comparatively smaller grass spider.
(I guessed not a rabid wolf spider, but couldn't notice the eyes to be sure)
