Comments & ID Thoughts
I saw this very tiny spider (compare to the tiny screw on a light switch) in my bathroom this morning.
Its markings on the abdomen, and spindly legs make me think it may be a cellar spider, but I am unable to find any pictures of cellar spiders that perfectly match.
Cellar spider? Other?

Update! I believe this is a Triangulate Cobweb spider (Steatoda Triangulosa).
I was going down the list and googling some spiders that had similar descriptions from Idaho Fish and Game’s website:

Yes I agree.
The Idaho Fish and Game website info is excellent. I added it to my bookmarked reference sites. I lost my collection of bookmarked sites when my iPad died and it took my Apple password to the recycling facility with it. The Google cloud storage is more accessible for recovering an account than Apple Cloud.
Oh yes it’s great!!! ฅ՞•ﻌ•՞ฅ
