MITURGIDAE (CLUBIONIDAE)

Black-footed Spider, Cheiracanthium mildei
~let me know if this is not right, I think from the plate and discription I have a match.

These guys tend to move into the house this time of year for the more preferable humidity inside the house. I recommend looking for them around 11pm or so, watch the floor's corners and walls for them, they move quick and will stick your hair out instantly when they jump while you are trying to relocate them? put them outside or "whatever"

We dont have venomous(to human) house spiders here but we do have the European House Spider which can give you quite a fright late at night :D ...
