Comments & ID Thoughts
I live in Jacksonville, Florida and it’s 51°F (10.5°C) I went to pick up my hose to fill up my dogs water dish while I was outside watching her. I didn’t noticed it until it was crawling on my hand. I flicked it off and freaked out. My hose was bundled/wrapped around a holder thing. I noticed there was a much smaller grey spider that also climbed on my hand before I noticed this one and shaked it off my hand. I’m not sure if it’s a Chilean Recluse or a garden spider, etc.
I think it may have bitten me and just need to know what kind of spider it may be. I have other photos and videos but it only lets me attach one. I’m sorry it was not the best photo because I didn’t want to get to close to it

Not enough detail for me to work with, but certainly not any recluse.
Not any spider that may be a threat.
If you have to ‘think’ you were bitten, you were not. Even a grass spider has a noticable sting.
I don.t see a garden spider here, but possibly one of the other funnel weavers.
