How big is it?
Where’s the abdomen? It’s shaped like a funnel spider, I’ve only seen them black.

Well it did pop out while we were cutting a hole in the wall...

How much does it weigh? Does it come with any food?

If you need a replacement I have a few around. I think I've killed a dozen in all parts of the house the last couple days. It's crazy. This rain is probably driving them in now. Which makes it too wet to spray outside. I'm about to start just shooting them like the Mandalorian.

They won't bother you if you don't keep poking at them. How many of you weird South Carolinians knew this? "The Carolina wolf spider (H. carolinensis) is the official state spider of South Carolina, designated as such in 2000. South Carolina is the only U.S. state that recognizes a state spider."

cool weather outside coupled with all this rain will drive all sorts of buggers inside
we just had pest control out last week to treat/bait. I might freshen up the glue traps too.
