I live in a very wooded area in the country (Lyndonville, NY) and we have always had a lot of spiders inside and out but these ones are rather large (almost an inch long), they move very fast and they seem to be showing up more and more in my house. This morning I found 2 of them in a bathtub, in our downstairs bathroom; which, doesn't get used much. They seemed to be unable to get out of the tub. They weren't bothered by me taking many pix of them, maybe because they were stuck.
I always thought that they were black but upon closer inspection, you can see that they are brown.
Can you help me ID it and also tell me the best way to get them out of the house?
Thanks
