What brown bug has eight legs and pinchers?

In: Insects, Crustaceans, Ticks and Mites [Edit categories]

Answer:

If it has eight legs, that makes your creature a spider not an insect. (Or a lobster or crab, but I am assuming you are not speaking of shellfish.)

Beyond that, more detail is needed regarding:

size of spider (measurement and proportion of body, legs)
location (country/state, and specify basement, flower garden, etc)
behavior (movement, feeding, speed)
web (if any)
markings
