Every spider is a brown recluse unless it’s a black widow.
The brown recluse can actually be identified by a “violin” shape on their body! I’m a bit of a nutter and let most spiders chill where they are in my apartment if they are safe lol
It’s chilling inside. It ain’t bothering me, I actually like the company lol. I might move it outside later but It’s kind of cold out and it seems happy.
I have some house rules for spiders: no bed, no hanging above bed, no sudden movements, avoid open spaces, no counters, get away from my feet. They are welcome to any dark corner of my home.
Here’s a baby step towards spider tolerance: neither of those spiders can make a Charlotte-type web. So, any spider you see hanging out in one of these 🕸️ is not only not a danger to you, she’s taking prey and space away from the scary ones, so you want more like her to crowd them out.
I like these Halloween orange guys! Their web lines look too thin to hold them. Took me awhile to find a picture where the web wasn’t torn, because they like to build where light is coming from a window or door at night, to catch night bugs, so people tend to find them by walking into it face-first in the morning. But they’re good guys!
