Moving an indoor spider outside typically leads to their death. What you did here is basically throw a spider to the wolves. If you can’t deal with a spider indoors and you feel obligated to do something about it but have ethical feelings or whatever, the better thing to do is simply and quickly squish it.
You’re hurting his leg :( (Pretty sure it’s a male Eratigena atrica)
Friendly spiderbro, very common.
Thanks! It isvery likely a Eratigena Atrica. The pattern on its back is identical. I safely released it in the garden.

But, it’s a spider, so whatever.
Nahhhh if you let it outside your feeding another animal, if you squish it your making a mess.
