The EASIEST solution is to buy this product

It is a fumigation aerosal can that is only about 10 bucks. You just push the button, fog out the shed, and close the door. A few hours later, you won't have to worry about black widows and bird eating spiders.
Or if you are one of those do it yourself characters, An easy way is just to buy 4 lbs of dry ice, smash it to tiny bits and throw it in messily everywhere. Close the door/windows and they will suffocate.
If you want a challenge, go get a bucket, fill it with chlorine and dump 1 lb of sugar in there. I hope you won't need the bucket; the heated reaction will melt plastic. The reaction is sudden but takes 1 min or more to happen. But that will gas the place out as well. It is the same gas used in WWII, so keep pets and children inside. Tell your neighbors. Otherwise you might find them sprawled out in their backyards 2 hrs later. I dunno, do you like your neighbors? Buy life insurance beforehand.
If these are mutant spiders the size of monkeys, then I would reccomend sci-fi B movie tactics.
Freeze em' m#@f$%kers:
The best if you want to preserve the shed would be to get 6 gallons of liquid nitrogen and continuously pump it into the shed till they die of coldness. Then sell the freak of nature's carcasses on ebay for $2000 bucks each. Ps. make sure they're dead. There's always one that feigns death and suprises you.
Flamethrow the place:
Get an aerosol hairspray can and put a lighter in front of it each time you spray. The flames are cold enough so they should not set things on fire if you do quick bursts. Check for paint thinner and gasoline cans. This was used in the movie arachniphobia. Remember to get the crevices and corners. If a spider jumps at you, shoot it in the heart with a nail gun.
Shock em' to hell:
Pour salt water all over the shed. Then take an electric powerline and shock the top of the shed. At the same time scream, "Die you mutant son of a b#@tches" at the top of your lungs and do it at night so the blue sparks look cool. If you really do this, please film it and post it on youtube. Make sure you are wearing rubber boots.
Poison em':
And lastly, buy crickets from a pet store. Get about 50 or so. Have food mixed with odorless rat poison and feed the crickets. Then toss the crickets in the shed at night. Wait one day. Then lie down next to one of the spiders as it is dying and gasping in its last moments and recite a mournful passage from shakespeare to it.

Flatulence usually works pretty good, if not open a can of Raid and spray the hell out of the shed, if that doesn't work, then do the following:
Let the spiders crawl on your hand, with your other hand take an ice pick and stab repeatedly at them until they are dead, this is a sure way to get rid of them......

If you have a spider problem you have a bug problem as well, as spiders live where there is food. So, before you spray your house down with chemicals (never a good idea) look for the bugs that the spiders are eating. I personally relocate spiders to the outdoors.

What do you want to kill the spiders for? They are only there because they are catching other bugs. Spiders, except for Black Widows, are peaceful, unassuming arachnids who don't bother anybody. On top of that, the get rid of the other bugs for you.

Go buy some of those 'Rid" bug bombs and set them off in your shed. Just follow the directions on the can. They worked great for me in my basement. I am terrified of spiders!!!!

Get a "bug bomb" and use it! There are some on the market where you only have to stay out of the area for a couple of hours. That should kill the bugs in the shed!

You should keep a shed clean and well lit. Spiders like dark, dusty corners. If they don't find that kind of place in your shed, they might decide to build it somewhere else. Good luck!
