Thank you Anyphaena for the confirmation. I had Identified it as a Wall Spider when I posted but as it was my first post maybe did not put all the info in the correct places. I did put the ID in the comments as I did not see any box for putting the name. So still learning the site:))
I apologize I didn’t see your identification of the Oecobius Wall Spider until after I posted it!! I’m not familiar with this site either. I’m fairly new and don’t come on as often as I would like to.
No problem Anyphaena, I always appreciate help:). We will learn the site together lol
