    Kill it. I completely leave spiders alone outside, but if they come inside, they are dead.

    Kill it and wait for mama spider's revenge....

    In all honesty, you should be able to take it outside. No rocket science there.

    I don't want it near me so why would I take it outside?

    The cigar thing worked; man, just a slight waft and he scurried right out. So he's outside now, and it's a balmy 60 degrees F, so he'll be fine. Assuming he doesn't die of nicotine poisoning, which might be a thing? I don't know; I'm not a spider doctor.

    Everyone who voted for "mercy": congratulate yourself, you have saved a life via the internet.

    Everyone who voted "death": I'll murder something tomorrow for you.

    That idea of yours kinda sounds like torture.

    If I had a nickel for every time someone's said that to me, I'd have... eight nickels.

    I suggest you equip yourself with hip wader boots, welding gloves, and a face mask. Get a can of Raid, and blast the beast, until it is coated white and still moving. Then, when you are almost asphyxiated, stomp it to death.

    Pick up the toxic pieces and toss them in a trash outside.

    The alternative solution involves nuclear options. I could explain the process of fusion, but this site would get shut down for national security reasons.

    Good call, showing mercy. After all, insects like spiders are part of Creation, from Day 5, to be precise. Besides, killing is wrong. It says so in the Commandments.
