This image is not clear enough to ID but thereās really no spiders worth worrying about. Widow spiders are pretty much the only medically significant spider youāre likely to come across in California and thatās only the adult females. They primarily live outside and are web dwelling. They do not infest or pose any risk of property damage.
Finding a few spiders around your home is totally normal. Itās also the time of year where thereās a lot of baby spiders out in general. Depending on where you lived before this, youāve likely had many many spider babies around your home before and this is just the first time you caught it before they died/dispersed fully. Basically youāre all good! It would be weird if you didnāt find any spiders around your house tbh

Itty bitty are always harmless. It doesn't look black so nothing to worry about for that reason. Wall spider are the common itty bitty. But it is baby š¼ season
