Don’t worry! It’s a solpugid, which are not venomous. Also don’t worry about all the brown recluse hype. There are very few confirmed bites.
This is a camel spider.. They are not poisoness, but there bits can be painful… They will not Ally run from humans, unless looking for shade.
It’s a sun spider very common in Arizona… They are nonvenimous
