richev Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 Yesterday I caught this little spider in our house. About 1.5cm long, it wasn't a species I've seen before. Based on the photo, can anyone identify it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johndoe Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 Pic not good enough for ID but if it ain't got a red back, I wouldn't worry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobj Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 Looks like a black house spider, venomous, but not dangerous. Cheers, Bobj. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrsmac Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 If it has a little white tip on the end of it's tail, it is a White Tail Spider. A very nasty piece of work. Kill it immediately. (The body shape is right, but I cannot see the end of it's tail.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
