This little fella and a bunch of his friends live in my sister's basement.She is afraid of spiders,but I love them. I love going down there and taking pictures of them hanging in their webs.Anyway,what kind of spider is this little fella? And my sister and I were having an argument about him because she says they bite and I say they don't.So,who is right?
I would like to know too because I have those in my basement too.
They are commonly known as Cellar Spiders and are harmless. They are in the Pholcidae family.
