Any Ideas What Kind of Spider This Is?

[Sarah.Eileen]

Hello all!

A friend of mine sent me a picture of a spider she found in her home and was curious what it was!

Thought it might be cool to see the speculation of those who know much more than I do!

Any ideas? We live in coastal VA by the way.

Awesome! My best guess would be the Southern House Spider. Coolio!

Yup. I change my mind. I agree with Casey.

We call them "oak spiders" in South Carolina because they seem to inhabit fire wood piles...
