Hi can anyone please help me to ID this spider that I caught in my house its huge it could be a giant house spider or a male hobo spider. I'm not sure though I would be gratefull for a second opinion.

This does in fact look like a male hobo spider... but just so I was sure about it I looked it up

I'm pretty sure that is the hobo spider... u might want to get that thing out of your house and be careful...

Hiya thanks your quick response can I ask who can I take the spider to. That will definitely id it for me.

Ummmm not really for sure who ud take it to... couldn't find anything on that.. but I did find this if you wanted to order a spider control product
