It looks like a harmless relative of the Hobo spider. Eratigena duellica..the giant house spider…..They look quite similar but they have very hairy legs….this is a male….the males go wandering this time of the year to look for a mate.

Thank you for your help, I have a life long (albeit irrational) fear of anything with 8 legs. However wanted to at least make sure it wasn’t poisonous. We get brown recluse here and I am trash as identification on my own.
