Just captured this because i was afraid it was a brown recluse, but after looking at pictures online I no longer think so, anyway, caught him in my garage and if its a nasty spider, i dont want it to reproduce more than it probably already has.

I am in NJ and my neighbor just got bitten by a brown recluse. She noticed the redness swelling the next day. On the third day she went to the doc because of the pain and spreading. She was rushed in to surgery and had a chunk of skin the diameter of a half dollar and all the way to the bone scraped away from her ankle. Her ankle literally rotted away within 3 days.
