Comments & ID Thoughts
I think this might be a brown recluse, but he (or she) seems to be a little too dark. Seems to have markings on abdomen, but I couldn't get a good enough look at its eyes to see if it had the triple-eyes.
Smashed it to stun it so it lost a leg.

Thank you! I was about to burn down the house just to make sure.
