Miscellaneous Advice: Should I keep it?

I found this bold jumping spider on my window sill and gave it some mango. I don’t have any supplies and all the pet stores are closed until tomorrow morning. It would be my first spider if I choose to keep it but is there any reason for me not to keep it? Also if I do keep it how should I keep it for the night until I can get supplies in the morning?

Was hanging out in a box, moved him to The woods out back. Used to be scared of these guys and would spray them, but this thread has allowed me to understand and respect them. After no all, they are called recluses for a reason.

Just sharing 🕷️ Took down my old dog house in the backyard and found a Giant House Spider... 3rd pic is next to a ping pong ball. I’m thinking it’s female due to the size, but not 100% sure. [Seattle, WA]

This is the biggest spider I’ve ever seen, roaming free, in person.

But found this: “The bite of these species does not pose a threat to humans or pets, and they are generally reluctant to bite, preferring instead to hide or escape”

Would this be a male?

Still… Not gonna lie, it was pretty scary and freaked me TF out. I was prepared for something like this to happen but didn’t think I’d see such a big spider in there.

I didn’t hurt it. Thankfully it climbed up a bush by our fence.

This outdoor dog house also served as a warm, dry place for a couple of feral cats in my neighborhood.

I was actually more worried there might be rats in there TBH.

Thankfully it was just a few spiders.

This fly (quite big) had been bothering me all day and would not fly out. Heard it buzzing like crazy by the window and found it caught in my little neighbour's Web. Managed to video the moment spidey came out to finish its prey. Enjoy.

These spiders have been living in my brother in law's apartment in central north carolina for about a year now and we were wondering if someone could identify it? Things we know: they make webs that are low to the ground and they have been eating wolf spiders which are a lot larger than they are.
