Does anyone have any ideas how to stop Spam?

Because I have a website with my address, I get well over 100 Spam emails every day (often a dozen or more from the same Spammer who wants to sell me medication). I try to report the Spams to SpamCop, but this does take time and, quite frankly, seems to make not a jot of difference; I am now getting more Spam than before I started using SpamCop.

Short of removing my contact details from my website, is there anything I can do to reduce the Spam and/or get back at the Spammers?

Update:

Thank you, Laura - but I fear that only exacerbates the problem. No human being will read my comment but the Spambot will realise that I exists and redouble its mailings.

Update 2:

Many thanks, Tazimbabul, but the company you suggest seems to be a bit too high-powered for what I want.
