Where do you live?
Very few spiders cover the whole world, but that looks close enough to a brown recluse that you should've killed it immediately if you're anywhere that could even potentially have them.
They're not normal spiders, if you get bit by one it will fuck you up bad. A bite could result in dead tissue almost a foot wide within days, and take months to heal even with medical treatment. They're not going to run at you and attack you, but you don't want these roaming around you house.
If the body has that light brown with dark brown in it, they get squashed. And not with a paper towel or tissue, take the time to go get a shoe or a hardcover book. It ain't worth the risk.
But again, they're pretty much only in a chunk of America that isn't really densely populated, so it really matters where you're at.

Thanks for the answer. Living in France. I didn't hear of dangerous species of spiders here. But this one had me look twice.
if you're in France, than it's probably this one ☞ https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/T%C3%A9g%C3%A9naire_g%C3%A9ante
please be more careful with their legs next time. Looks like 3 are crushed
it may as well be this one too ☞ https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tegenaria_domestica
Thank you for your reply. I think this is it. It was indeed not aggressive. Now that I know it's inoffensive, I will be more careful in the future
Yeah. I have no idea what spiders are in France.
A good way to figure it out is find a website with a list of dangerous spiders for your area, and ideally the most common spiders confused for them.
Chances are you'll see something like yours on the list.
we don't have dangerous spiders here 😅
Have fun acting like that tho
Dude just calm down. You could make your point without being so hostile and condescending.
I understand. But just because someone can't recognize a brown recluse spider doesn't make them an idiot. All you have to do is be like hey, actually it's not a brown recluse because of xyz. No need for the ridicule
Have you been banned for a month and only came back today?. Or simply been inactive and this pissed you up so hard that you just had to react?
I just wanted to see if i could find a reason why you are overreacting like this. I guess there isn't.
