I'd use a huge Metal Mixing bowl I have. Drop it on the spider, slide my giant cookie sheet underneath, and call a museum or zoo and offer it to them. Ask for the cleaned bowl and cookie sheet back afterwards, of course.
In the UK: pick it up, rescue it from the cat, inspect it, take photos of it, post them on teh interwebs, leave it alone. Here in Aus: rescue the cat from it, cover it up, very gingerly take photos of it (for evidence), post them on teh interwebs (assuming I haven't had to call an ambo to take me for an anti-venom), shoo it away. Actually it's the little ones you have to watch here
Oh, wait, I can sell it? Oh okay, that's easy... erect stepladder, drop big plastic box on it from height, call experts and get them to shift it.
He would die a fast painless death.....he is endangered??? Well so am I and I have a 12 gauge shotgun. No one will ever find his body. What spider?? Nooo, never saw a spider...
I would blast the spider with annoying pop music, sure to send the thing scurrying for safety. If that didn't work I'd film it waving it's legs around to ward off the horrifying musical cacophony and post it on YouTube "Spider Dances To Taylor Swift's Shake It Off"
...Though the way he picks up the likes around here, its more like MycRomancer. I believe that is the worst mushroom joke I have ever made.
Incidentally, Camel Spiders iirc are not true spiders. I assume that'd be the ginormous arachnid, also known as a Wind Scorpion in the US. Note, iirc, its also not really a scorpion, its its own thing. That 'thing' of course being "hands down most terrifying thing that probably isn't dangerous".
I think they also simultaneously prove both the non-existence of a caring, loving God, and the existence of Satan.

Well @Nukeface ... Bhaal did get around a lot... You would be a little worried about what he picked up and spread around... I feel this is a whole new thread...

Back to the spiders. For sanities sake! Some things should never be discussed!
Way back in the day, while playing "Eye of the Beholder", I used to jump every single time we encountered Giant Spiders in the catacombs. They were CREEPY. Even today, playing Dark Souls 2, in one encounter I was really REALLY creeped out by the Boss I was facing.
So to answer the OP. Probably shriek like a little girl.
I tell @CrevsDaak to stop scaring the neighbourhood. Backstabbing is bad, blah blah blah. One day you won't be able to polymorph back to your true shape etc... and then who is going to help ? For sure we all know a grumpy mage in High Hedge. Even though he knows a lot about anti-chickenator things, his anti-spiderator skills remain unknown.

Watch out that you don't kill anyone putting that music ;p
"I'd ask him if he was really from Mars and how Ziggy is doing."
Not bad apparently, until he was stung by a Parasitizing Wasp from Mars, failed his save vs poison which paralyzed him, and most unfortunately, failed his save vs death and was infested.
Unfortunately, Spiders cannot take levels in any priest class (they are restricted to Fighter and Rogue class levels), due to atheism. Ziggy Stardust was horribly eaten alive from within.
Other than that I think he is just peachy though! Could use a Rod of Resurrection maybe?
Maybe he actually got bitten by a Wyrrin and turned into a giant space termite? Now he highlights at "Milliways, the restaurant at the end of the Universe" under the cover band "Ziggy and the Arachnids from Outerspace"

Hey there, all. Long time no post.
What spider??
Nooo, never saw a spider...
Or (and I would in no way be brave enough to do this) 1. Attack it with a bokken and break its legs. 2.Play the banjo until it flees for its life
You certainly get the award for the most creativity. I would have never thought of those.
Have an internet cookie.
Also, this topic reminds me of a gif from @Metalloman's thread:
Can't kill it?
Is suicide an option?

And then a giant spider rips your face off and it's not awesome anymore.
If you have crabs @Nukeface , I'm told that you should seek a doctor...
I don't remember asking your advice in the matter, SIR. *itch itch itch*
*itch itch itch*
Crabs, the true Bhaalspawn?
