Hello everyone, I live with my grandmother in southern West Virginia. She recieved a packaged today from Louisville, Kentucky. Along with that package, I believe a woodlouse hunter spider was shipped along with it! I found it in our bathroom tonight, along with that its NOT native to west virginia. Should i house him since hes so far away from home? Im wanting to. Along with that, can anyone provide me with care for this little 8 legged cutie. The picture provided isnt the best.
Dysdera crocata?

Welcome to the forum! Yes, D. crocata. It's not native to the US at all, they came over from Europe a long time ago. More pictures would help, but I suspect this may be a mature male, so his time would be limited anyway.
