Make the idiot dig an 6 foot deep hole.
If I'm gonna be an old, lonely man, I'm gonna need a thing, you know, a hook, like that guy on the subway who eats his own face. So I figure I'll be Crazy Man with a Snake, y'know. Crazy Snake Man. And I'll get more snakes, call them my babies, kids won't walk past my place, they will run. "Run away from Crazy Snake Man, " they'll shout!”

I wish I could do that.
I told the domestic worker a few times before leaving
Not to clean the room but she didn't listen. Now I no clue how to get rid of it.

Hi. How exactly did your domestic worker manage to kill it? And are you certain the spider wasn't just in the process of molting?

Keep doors locked to areas you don't want accessed.

Yes, Spiders are quite tough, and even if sprayed close to them they don't always die. As DK said, are you sure it wasn't in Molt?

I know of a lady that sprayed half a can of "RAID" on a common baboon spider/tarantula and it still had enough life in him/her to flee and find a hiding place, I also know of a guy that threw his tarantula in the rubbish because he thought it was dead but instead it was moulting, My advise is leave the tarantula in the cage for a while and give it a week, if you smell something dead, then turn the tarantula in a bit of compost.
as long as you keep quiet, no one will notice that your dumb

Unfortunately have to say it, never buy any of that poison junk.
There are natural and better ways to deal with pest ants and the like.
