I found a spider in my house and I want to know if it is dangerous?
It is about the size of a Toonie ( coin in canadian currency).. here is a link to a picture I took of it!

By the shape of the carapace and the thick front legs, that is definitely a species of jumping spider (Family Salticidae). Possibly genus Platycryptus, but I can’t be sure.

This family is the LARGEST family of all spiders, with over 5,000 species, so a positive ID down to the species from a photo is very unlikely.
Jumping spiders are harmless to humans. Most can bite us, but can’t cause the lasting pain a wasp can.

Looks like a wolf spider. Wolf spider’s aren’t dangerous, but being bit by one is like getting stung by a wasp, so I’d avoid it.
i would go online and look for breeds or types of spiders and pictures of them… you could call a vet of something too. they might know
I don’t know what it is, but get it out of your house somehow! I hate spiders!!!
dam thats one of the most poisonous spider, dont kill it, just let it go in grass somewhere
this looks like a common grass spider, or a jump spider.
seeing its eyes would confirm its identity.
both are harmless,and not likely to bite.
you can easily relocate it outdoors if you don’t want it in the house.
