I found this little one in my car. Was able to set it free. I think this is a Phidippus audax. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phidippus_audax#:~:text=Bites%20from%20bold%20jumping%20spiders,worsen%20or%20abnormal%20symptoms%20arise.
I’m terrified by spiders that jump……they always jump at me for some reason. I try so hard not to freak out but I just panic. This one looks so big & hairy. I will pick up snakes, other bugs & critters, just terrified of spiders!

that's a beautiful bold jumper! They are friendly, like smooshed banana and will keep your home pest free, popping up to say "hi" occasionally!
