I found this crawling in a shoe! It has bright red markings in the shape of a line and arrow, a red ring running around the abdomen and a black bottom. It about a cm long with a huge abdomen.

I think I found it: The Steatoda paykulliana, or False Widow spider.

Thank god it's not a Redback spider.
