Hello, I just found this monster in my house and I've never seen a wild spider so big in my life. Its leg spread is at least 20cm. Could you tell me what kind it is and if it's dangerous? Thank you.

20cm!?!? It looks like a male Orb-weaver but they don’t get 20cm big lol
Yeah, 20 is exaggerated, sorry. More like 10-12cm. I was just so impressed
It could be a huntsman spider, they get very large. They are generally not considered very dangerous, but being bit can cause pain and swelling.
Thanks for the replies. I just hope they don’t swarm the house.
This is Tegenaria domestica, not dangerous to humans.
