Looks like what we see here in NE Ohio in the fall. They are called Wolf Spiders

Certainly not a black widow...doesn't look like a brown recluse. Beats me. Send the pic to some local pest control services if they have an email address.

from the markings, it's a Rodham jumping spider.

It's the dreaded owrtyowr. In years past egyptians worshiped this spider because of its propensity to kill elephants with a single bite.

That's not a wolf spider. I get wolf spiders all the time.

It's a cheese Eating Moose Spider. Sieries, they can grow to be hugh, so don't let it bite your sister while she's in the shower. Please alert FR if it starts to build a burger or a base.

This isn't a wolf spider. I'm all too familiar with those..

from the bottom it's hard to tell, but looks to me like a harmless house spider. But try this link

You can't smash it. It's guts are acidic and will eat through the foundation of you home.
