Does anyone know what kind of bug this is? Should I be concerned? I check for pest whenever I water. Or is this just a harmless little thing that’s decided to live on my plant?

i’m betting it eats other bugs

Google says it’s a stilt bug and that some of them eat other bugs and some of them eat plants. I wasn’t sure which he was so I went ahead and removed it to be on the safe side.

Looks like a house spider to me! If it is.. he won’t hurt your plants. If you don’t mind him hanging out with you he will just help you patrol for pests 😮

I don’t mind if they’re not harmful to my plants or pets!
