It looks like a house spider, but its not, the markings are diff and the body's rounder. Anyone know what it could be?

that's the one. I'd also like to know why they're becoming a popular stowaway. Though, I'm not too bothered by spiders, they get so much bad press

I had one of those in my crix too. I was in the process of fishing him out to put him in a container when my CWD who was out and about my room at the time decided that he rather liked the look of the spider i was playing with and promptly ate him right out of the crix box....singled him out i swear lol.
