How to dissolve a spider with household chemicals? Somehow a spider got into the little window that shows the water level on my electric kettle. The kettle doesn't come apart very easily, and it looks like I can't get this part off without breaking it. 

I'd hate buying a  new kettle just because of a little spider but, I also don't want spider juices with my coffee. 

Would bleach/some other household chemical dissolve the spider? Is there some other methodology you can recommend?
You're not the old lady that swallowed a fly and trying to avoid your lyrical fate, are you?

"Biological" washing powder might do the trick - plenty of proteolytic enzymes - probably take several days at least.  Then you'd have to wash out the resultant spider soup.

I hope you like coffee with a lot of body to it.
