Can anyone help identify this spider.From looking at pictures here might be a ghost spider?
It may be a Broad Faced Sac Spider?? Try looking that up and see if the pictures look similar on the web to what you been seeing? Their bite causes painful swelling, but nothing serious. If you have any other clearer pictures to post I can try to look for more. That or maybe a Cheiracanthium? Do take everything I say with a grain of salt, I’m not an expert and am just using the web for possible matches.
This is a sac spider. It may be a Yellow Sac Spider, in which case it is extremely venomous. The bites of Yellow Sac Spiders are painful, necrotic and will sometimes become infected. You should definitely see a doctor if you suspect you have been bitten by this spider. Their venom is not nearly potent enough to kill you, so don’t freak out.
This might be Hibana velox. Pesticides in your home won’t have any benefit if new spiders and insects may still enter through cracks. It will be cold the next two days in NH, it will be a good time to find spots where there is heat loss that could be openings for bugs to get in.
