This is a male southern house spider. They are totally harmless.

I knew all of those! Also I’m not exactly afraid of spiders. And I meant that most of the time on here the spider is just a house spider.

Jumping spiders, that is a huge family.
im not saying every spider is a house spider. I’m just saying that the majority of spiders submitted are from random folks that want to know if said random house spider is dangerous.
Quite true.
