Wolf spider? This picture was taken with a flash, about the size of a nickle. Found in an upside down bowl under storage drawers.

Thank you! I have a bite on my shoulder from last week that I knew was a spider bite based on the reaction, pain and healing time so I think this was the culprit that I found today.

Unlikely culprit. This looks like a female, and they like to keep to themselves in their webs.
