Spider - Male
Elkton, Douglas County, Oregon, USA
September 6, 2009
Size: approx 10mm+
Lots of these around all the outside doors with lights, looking for dinner or a date, no doubt. Amazing how many try to come inside. The only way I found to stop them is every week or so spray around the inside of each door with spider spray - turns them right around, and sends them back outside. My guess is a funnel spider of some sort.

Tegenaria like, but grass spider?
These look like Tegenaria to me, but the eyes look a lot like a grass spider.
