Hey Macro-onians,

First up, apologies ... these were taken from my phone (not my 100mm Macro lens as I was away from camera).

Sprung this little guy sneaking into my bed while I was on holiday (Pittwater, NSW, Australia) which I thought was a bit cheeky. From googling spider id charts, believe it is a "Black House Spider"?

Are these pics clear enough to help ID him/her? Body length was approx 15-20mm.

Spider in "catching container", lid off:

Spider in container, lid on, thumb in background for size reference:

Thanks,
Daniel
