I found a massive spider in my bedroom once, almost like a tarantula, right above my head and I'm terrified on the things. A 6th sense woke me from my sleep and told me it was there. I took a bug spray and sprayed the life out of it, it jumped all over my room and it was like an old man and the sea like battle that went on throughout the night. I used the whole bottle of spray and eventually towards dawn the spider started to harden and curl up and die. I was exhausted after that.

Black widows and some other kinds of spiders breathe through osmosis, so any kind of spray lubricant, like WD40 will suffocate them. If not, then they are drenched well enough to torch.

Get a frequency device. I BELIEVE it will irradiate all spiders within you entire home. It doesn't kill them, but it shoos them away. :)) Best. Invention. Ever.

squish it
by Faithlesstheist on June 30th, 2010
Nuke it. Just to be sure.
Stepping on it also works.
by PJR on November 18th, 2009
Use hairspray, then it can't move. Then you can stomp that sucker completly flat lol
by Just Plain KRAZY on December 28th, 2008
UG! I HATE SPIDERS! Start with a metal bat,hit it twice to be sure it got it. Then to be sure you got it, get a magnifying glass to be sure it isn't moving. Then burn the carcass. When you are sure it is dead, call pest control to remove the charred remains.

I will attempt to kill it by screaming as loud as I can!
by SoundEge on August 11th, 2008
I've used WD-40, Hair-Spray, or any can with a Warning that states it's Flammable. You can use just the can but for instant relief from the Black-Widow, Brown-Recluse or any other Spiders, Bees, or "Yellow jacket"; Try this:
Light up a Lighter on Full and use the top of the Flame just below the Target. Like you would aim a Sling-Shot.
Now do this fast and carefully. Just Give a slight Burst from the Can, and it should Launch a FireBall at the insect.Make sure you spraying Just above the Flame on the lighter. This should keep you from blasting Too much Flame, and do remember so see if there is anything Behind your Target That might Catch Fire.
If the Spider is indoors its best not to use the Lighter. [Common Sense Right].
Happy Hunting

Suck it up in a sweeper, see if it can find it's way out, if it does , it deserves to live another day.

Use my foot and squish the little sucker or get a piece of tissue paper catch him and then flush him down the toilet.
by Anon on December 28th, 2008
I used foot aerosol on insects once. Made them sizzle and die insanely fast.
But I would suggest a boot.

spray something on it like bathroom spray or hairspray , and if it hides behind something i spray deodrant to get it out,i then throw a tissue on top of it ,grab the tissue with the spider inside and flush it.
by Dann.Allen on August 23rd, 2010
I find the best way is bleach!!!
Sucks the life (and the water) out of the little buggers!!!
by Isaac on June 30th, 2010
Tie it up with silly string to replicate the feeling of being webbed, then get a fly to eat them. Let's see how THEY like it(!)
by ShOrTkAkE on June 30th, 2010
You don't. How bout that? 99% of types of spiders are harmless.
by snackbob on August 13th, 2010
im sorry to dissapoint you, but if you have a spider in your house your fucked, nothing you can do, if i were you i would just pack up and leave quickly.. i wouldnt even risk packing up actually, just fuckin run to the hills and dont look back.
p.s dont look into its eyes, its highly likely you will turn into stone
by PocketNut is as sure as a peanut on June 22nd, 2010
Leave it alone to die of natural causes, if it weren't for spiders we'd be inundated with plagues of flies and crop pests, being scared of an animal is no good excuse for killing it.
by CHOCOLATMILK111111 on August 13th, 2010
Dip it in liquid carbon dioxide and once its frozen flick it hard and it will shatter.

Five pounds of dynamite........Seriously!
by BenWill on April 6th, 2011
Just take a hair spray, light a lighter, spray the hairspray in the direction of the lighter, and spray it at the spider. Watch the fire!
by Livy_R on April 20th, 2011
I do not know but there is a huge spider in my room right now so I am trying to see which is the best.. The foot spray, then container, then bleach and go down the toilet sounds awesome.. I am so afraid right now.. but anyways i will try.

by Tan_F on December 31st, 2010
using the famous lynx perfume spray to freeze it,and use 100c hot water to pour on it,cheap spider killing method,no need to buy some toxic insect killer,the lynx is flammable,so when the hot water reach it,spiders get burn,useful at your room
by Tinkerpopalopalus on April 6th, 2011
Although I don't want to kill them (as horrible as they are) I am too scared to trap them and set them free and I refuse to have a dead spider squished to anything I own so...I tend to spray the fuck out of them with kitchen cleaners! The Bleach works a treat. Hairspray, air fresheners, anything that is sticky or has chemicals lol! Although bigger they are the more you tend to have to drench them. I have a really intense fear of spiders and I get shit loads of them in my home. Make sure there is never clutter where they can hide. Frequency devices help - but they may irritate your pets if you have any, didn't bother my cat though. Spider repellent sprays containing clove oil are really good, something about the oil they hate. Spray it around entrances to your home and fill any cracks and holes. Remove webs. Also eucalyptus is really good too. They really don't like it. Good idea to plant one in your garden if you live near open fields and get alot of windy whether. Put leaves under large furniture and on high up shelves. There's something about lemon & orange oil too ? I think they say spray a little on your window sills or something, as they won't cross it? not sure on that one, haven't tried that ..yet. More pets you have the better.. Cats are a good one to have to chase spiders away..or eat them lol. or a bat if you want to be abit more exotic haha! Apprently they like cardboard? If you have a lot of boxes you will usually find them living inside, so switch to plastic for storage. Of course, diff things will attract and repel different types of spiders. Can't you tell I did my homework lol? Thank god for google :p Hate the buggers me! S'cuse my poor typing :] Hope this helped some.

I have no problems with small spiders on webs. It\'s the brown ones that scuttle around the basement floor that really get me.
