Common house spider (likely a false widow)

Indoors and around buildings, especially in sheltered corners, crevices, and undisturbed spaces.

Catches insects and other small arthropods in a tangled web.

A sedentary, nocturnal web-builder; females remain near the web and may produce several egg sacs.

Not aggressive, and bites are uncommon; a bite may cause temporary local pain or swelling. It helps control household insects.
