Phidippus audax
(Bold Jumper)

Comments & ID Thoughts

Sorry spider lovers :/ I can’t handle them in my house... I also can’t squish them (I use DustOff to freeze them almost instantly). Found this massive guy/girl in my bathtub and freaked. Biggest spider I’ve found in my house in years. At least half inch body and easily an inch with legs. Google thinks is Phidippus regius or audax. Any guesses?
