Comments & ID Thoughts

Sorry if this picture is bad, I need help identifying them as they have been all over our apartment complex. We live on 3rd story with an outer entryway and they are up on the roofs and corners of the walls outside and I've never seen them anywhere else around the complex but on the building, sometimes they are on the stairway railings. This picture was taken inside because one managed to get in when the front door was open but they have never gotten inside otherwise. Sorry it is dead :( My cat got to it before I could safely put it outside, any help would be appreciated

Hi, this is a Long-jawed Orb-weaver (Tetragnatha sp.). Not anything to worry over.
