Comments & ID Thoughts

This creepy crawly was found in my finished basement. It is the 5th or 6th of it's kind that I've come across down there. I am afraid of spiders, and catch them in a spider vacuum. This one is currently being held in a mason jar.

Please help me identify it. Can it hurt my family or pets?

Hi. this looks to be a male domestic house spider, Tegenaria domestica (barn funnel weaver)
These will pose no threat to you or pets, not much prone to bite.
