Hiya! This spider looks like it could be dead or a molting, as the abdomen seems missing.
That being said, while this is it’s underside which is less helpful in identifying a species, it does have the structure of a Brown Recluse, Loxosceles reclusa, which are very common where you are, where I am, and most of the American southeast.
This is a species to keep an eye out for, as they have venom that is medically significant to humans.
Thank you. I’m gonna go out there and see if it is alive. There were 3 on my garage walls. I’ll have to see if they all look the same.
Yeah, you’re right. Totally dead. Lol. Still creeped me out. I hate the thought of brown recluse spiders in my house.
