Two of these, the domestic or lesser house spider, Tegenaria domestica, and the giant or larger house spider, Tegenaria gigantea, share much of the North American range of the hobo spider.

Tegenaria domestica is found throughout the entire North American range of the hobo spider, and most probably throughout the European range of agrestis as well.
