Wolf spiders are only dangerous if you get bitten right? it isn't dangerous to touch items the spider has been walking on?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not dangerous: Here's some info: http://en.Wikipedia.Org/wiki/wolf_spider even most bites are not too bad. You are right, no danger in exposure to items. Identifying spiders can be difficult, but i don't think any are a problem for the situation you describe. Best!
