Comments & ID Thoughts

I'm wondering if this is a brown recluse. I have a baby and this is scary, I have found 2 in two weeks. Please help!

Hi, the good news is that brown recluses are native to Maine. The recluse spiders are mostly in the central southern part of America. The bad news is that I don’t recognize your spider at all. 🙁

Hi, this is a Grass Spider (Agelenopsis sp.) judging from the long tapered spinnerets.
