Saw it under my carport and have never seen one before. Not sure if it is a spider and didn't think to count legs before squishing it.

I have no idea, but it should be killed with fire.

Assassin Bug. I leave them alone because they kill aphids.

They do bite. Had one bite me a couple months ago. Hurt like fire/bee sting.

I think I saw one of those kill a Black Mamba, and a Honey Badger at the same time on Natgeo Wild. I would not worry about it. They are probably not right all of the time.

correct, and yes they do hurt like a sob when they get you. i found out the hard way despite dr. riley at LSU (entomologist) warning us

Not a spider, only 6 legs. Some sort of ant probably.

Assassin bug or leaf footed bug. I can never tell them apart.
