Comments & ID Thoughts
This poor guy was whacked with a laundry basket after I startled it. It was sitting on the carpet in my bedroom. I noticed it because it was darker than the carpet. I thought it was lint from the laundry I was doing at the time. I was startled by it's size and quickness. I have no idea what this spider is called. Thanks for your help.
