excellent thread. i had one of these living in my bathroom for like 9 months in my old house. i used to catch bugs and throw them in the web, to watch it eat them. i never knew what kind it was.. until now! there was a bigger one in my kitchen, too, and i definitely caught it and moved it with me to my new apartment. let him go outside the window, but haven't seen it since. i like spiders.

"Male southern house spiders may sometimes appear to be aggressive, but they do not bite unless trapped, and their mouthparts are too small to easily penetrate human skin. Despite this, there have been incidents of males spraying a concentrated venom from their mouthparts, which has been known to cause severe scarring upon prolonged contact with the skin."

Back home, I'd sometimes find bugs and toss them into the big garden spider webs. Good times.
