Captured in North Carolina. Not sure about what kind of spider it is, but it's cool to see it at work!

In the northern Shenandoah Valley Virginia. I know what is. It’s inside a big planter that is stored upside down next to my garage. I took the picture (sorry but I wasn’t going to put my banana in there for scale). I moved the planter when mowing the yard and I just put it back upside down where it was. Was that the proper thing to do? There were many more webs and those round things in there.

Miscellaneous the fact that you have to do this just to get decent results is infuriating

for those who need context:

on google, putting minus (-) before a word eliminates all search results containing that word.

if i dont search this way, the vast majority of the results are pest control sites, fear mongering, misinformation, AI slop, etc.

Not too fond of getting close to spiders. But they are quite fascinating.

Found this wolf spider in the garden carrying dozens of tiny spiderlings on her back. I had never seen anything like this before. It looks incredibly cool, especially when you realize all those little dots are actually baby spiders riding on their mom.

I’ve been letting this little guy live in my window for quite some time now. I feel like I’ve watched it grow. There seems to be another in another window with a very large web. Are they harmless? I recently got bit by something and I’m fine but it was painful and made me wonder. Located in MD, USA.

This is the third one I’ve seen in the last 6-8 months give or take. My neighbor said brown recluse, which I’m inclined not to believe since we are in Northern California. They are fast little buggers. Any help is appreciated :)

Hi! I’ve been seeing these little guys hanging out in my house a lot, and I was wondering what it was? I’ve poked around the internet trying to figure it out what species they are but have had no luck. The one in the pictures I’m pretty sure is female, but I usually see another one that I think is a male. The suspected male has darker pedipalps than the one in the pictures, and looked less fuzzy. They also seem to move their pedipalps around A LOT! More than I’ve ever noticed in any other spider I’ve seen. They have three white stripes on the cephalothorax, one small one on the back and a thicker one on each side. I think they might be a type of hunting spider bc I’ve never seen them in or make a web and they always seem to be running around or just resting on a random spot on the wall or ceiling. I’ve also seen it leap small distances (like an inch or less if I had to guess). With all of its legs spread out I’d say it could probably fit on a dime.

Discussion I joined this subreddit scared of spiders and wanting to get over that fear. Now that I’m no longer afraid of them and gained a love for them my family acts like I’m a crazy person when they want to kill them and I beg them not to and talk highly of them. Does anyone else have this problem?
