Comments & ID Thoughts

Some kind of cobweb spider? It was pretty small and there were multiple of them in my garage. They seem to like hiding on my cooler. Never seen one with dimples on its abdomen like this though.

Steatoda species, most do have those dimples, they hold the inner organs to the exoskeleton. OK spiders, if their presense doesn’t bother you, just leave them be.
