Comments & ID Thoughts
This one was hanging out in the toilet. Since I had a bite on my hand that swelled like crazy 2 days ago, I am on alert and decided to get pictures. Long story short, my hand seems fine and I don’t know what got me. I’d be happy for someone to look at the bite/swelling photos but symptoms subsided. However - I would still like to know what’s lurking in my apartment. Thanks in advance, everyone!

Tegenaria domestica maybe? They’re not particularly aggressive spiders, when they do bite its harmless so I’m not sure.
Are the legs striped? Or is it just the quality of the photo? Because If its striped then I’m not sure what else it could be
Thanks Maxie. Yes, the legs are striped. I sure wish we could post more than 1 photo. I have several and I have a sneaking suspicion it’s a false widow but one photo alone won’t do it justice. I’ll check out your reference above and see if it looks close.
Okay, Please be careful!
