If it is kept in the proper moisture and temperature, such as in the woman's vagina, they can remain viable for up to 5 days. Once exposed to temperatures a few degrees hotter or colder than the human body's normal range, or if they dry, they are no longer viable.

You should not need to kill sperm if it is outside of the body, sperm must be near the vaginal opening or inside of the vagina in order to impregnate someone. And in that case their are "spermicides" that are used to "kill sperm".

Outside the body, sperm can live for about 15 to 30 minutes in the right conditions. In a hot tub or bath, sperm can only live for a few seconds Any surplus embryos produced from an IVF or ICSI treatment cycle, which are of sufficiently good quality and are not transferred to the womb in the fresh treatment cycle, can be frozen. These embryos can be transferred to the womb in a subsequent cycle (called frozen embryo transfer), thus avoiding the need to go through the whole process of stimulation and egg retrieval again
