CLOSED: Spider ID
Could be Steatoda triangulosa - Was it indoors?
Yes, it was living in an old PC case in the closet. I couldn't get a photo from the top, was moving too much lol. It seems younger (there were more but this was the only one alive)

Fortunately, this species is harmless to humans.
I let him go in the garage before I knew, so that's a relief! hopefully he'll be happier out there. Thanks so much
Spiders are popping up in the PNW during our warmer spring everywhere. Many spiders end up in the house. To lesson any fears for venomous spiders check online for spiders in your area . Once you know the good , bad and the ugly you will have little trouble in future surprises when spiders pop up when you least expect it. 👌
