common grass spider..... the stripes on the front part give it away.....and it won't hurt you... but it would rather be outside if you can put a glass over it and then cover the opening of the glass with a cardboard and trap it in the glass and then take it outside.....??....

I'm not an entomologist, but I can assure you it is not a Brown Recluse. The mouth parts on most spiders are too small to bite humans. Spiders are good-guys. They eat lots of insects that bother humans and other mammals. As one answerer suggested, chase it into a small container and let it go out side in the yard. It will be happier because there is food and water there.

I had a few of those and they are really quick. Get your running shoes on if you want to catch it lol. I think it has the shape of a common house spider and the legs look the same but what do those black and white markings indicate on its abdomen ?
They have big fangs so watch it doesn't bite you lol.
They look big but they are not really. I remember having put a garden spider beside one before and it pierced its abdomen with its huge fangs. It seemed relatively docile until I did this and it shocked me.
I think its just a house spider but google search common house spiders to compare their appearances so you are sure.

I get these in my house too. Depends on where you live, there's no brown recluses in Calif. I looked it up online. I think it's just a common wolf spider. Here's the link to read about 'em.

I am sure it's just a simple brown house spider, Kill it if you must, but if you can stomach it, put a cup over it and slide a piece of paper under it then throw it outside. If it's gone already then just leave it be, he's not gonna "jump" you while you are sleeping.
