    In my wife's office. Poisonous vs heart attack, nice to have options.

    I don't think that's a Recluse. The forward smallish arms-(pedipalps) don't resemble those on a Recluse. The "fiddle" markings would be visible on top, from the thorax back. You'd know it if you saw it.
    Looks like a fairly harmless fly catcher, but to be sure- kill it with fire.
