Found this inside on wall in house in Las Vegas area. Looks like some kinda of ant? Has larger legs in front that appear to have suction type properties? Used them to climb up side of plastic container.

going by the shape and lay out of the legs a would guess at some type of Solifugidae or sun spider. i used to keep some giant ones of these. more crazy than a giant pede!

Definitely a solifugid of sorts. They can bite pretty nasty, but are non-venomous. Ive seen some Egyptian equivalents reach about 5"!
