There is a nasty and effective spray that occasionaly can be found in the states called spider and scorpion killer. Rubber band guns are probably the most fun option. The secret inside of a building is to keep the place clean and kill any insect on site. Outside the trick is to stop being a *****, although I suppose deet might work.

How about getting over your phobia so you can throw the spider outside without having to kill it. I would rather have the spider outside in my backyard trapping mosquitos.

Spiders are generally not going to do anything worse than scare the daylights out of you :)

I read a study the other day that says the average person eats 8 spiders during their sleep throughout their life time.

I was once woke up to a gigantic wolf spider trying to crawl into my mouth. I believe 8 is a conservative estimate.

Dishsoap in watersolution is fatal to Spiders. It interferes with their respiration through the skin. It also works on all other arthropodae such as Mites!

I took out a bee hive at my parents house using soap and water. Works faster than poison when you use an appropriate 20 dollar sprayer. Also, my uncle is a bee keeper and he uses soap and water to take out colonies of Africanized bees.

That's actually BS.
