Problematic but a lot of fun. Feels a tad over exposed on right side, but will correct this with a gradient if the urge comes over me. Hopefully the spider will be there in the morning.

We tolerate these spiders inside our house because they really clean up other nuisance insects. They can flatten themselves out and squeeze into very narrow spaces.
They often get into cars and their sudden appearance while you are driving can be quite alarming and dangerous. Only the true arachnophile can let a large one of these critters roam freely around their car!
