Comments & ID Thoughts
It’s stuck in my window and I’m afraid one day it will sneak inside. Is this spider dangerous?

Hi, this is a Noble False Widow, Steatoda nobilis. Like most spiders they have venom but are not considered to be of medical significance, also unlikely to bite except in self defense. Not one to worry over.
