My wife saw this spider in our house just about 30 mins ago on the wall in the bathroom. I instantly killed it before it could run off, becoming the hero. After squashing him he\'s about the size of a quarter curled up, while alive I would say about two quarters size side by side. We just recently moved to Kansas and know Brown Recluses are a problem here.

We also live on Fort Riley in some of their historic houses so old house with a basement, which we found a dead spider in a few months ago. My wife HATES spiders but reall just want to make sure it\'s not a brown recluse.
