This fella was in my sink in the kitchen. Any idea what he is?

thanks. do they tend to have a nest with dozens of them or would you reckon he/she’s big enough to travel 100’s of metres at a time?
They emerge from egg sacs, then get away from their hungry siblings promptly. The hatchlings can travel long distances by air. The term for it is ballooning.
Found one of these in the house in Napa Ca yesterday. Man, these things do get around.
