Next time use HOT water. If a spider gets into my shower, it will NOT live. There are a lot of places I can tolerate spiders, and the shower is not one of them. I don't take any chances, if they don't drown or don't get washed down the drain, they're going to get cooked...I run only the hot water on spiders.
