    You’re hurting his leg :( (Pretty sure it’s a male Eratigena atrica)

      Thanks! It isvery likely a Eratigena Atrica. The pattern on its back is identical. I safely released it in the garden.

        Moving an indoor spider outside typically leads to their death. What you did here is basically throw a spider to the wolves. If you can’t deal with a spider indoors and you feel obligated to do something about it but have ethical feelings or whatever, the better thing to do is simply and quickly squish it.

        But, it’s a spider, so whatever.

          Nahhhh if you let it outside your feeding another animal, if you squish it your making a mess.

            Eat the spider after you squish it. Problem solved.
