    I disagree with this "increasing the electricity bill" scheme - if you do get rid of him, you'll have to foot a massive bill - he'll just default on it.
    If you don't get rid of him, he'll just resent you (even more) and you'll be living in a warzone.
    In spite of the desire for revenge, going down that route is a lose-lose situation

    Use reasonable force to kick his sorry backside out of your house and into the street.

    I guess he's been reading these forums on how to squat in someone elses property. LOL.
