I suppose he may have had no choice if they would have gotten rid of him anyway. Killing the servant girls who had never met him was a little rough. It makes more sense when you realize Odysseus is the villain, as Euripides portrays.

The suitors violated his household, which was a tremendous insult in the Homeric world.

They were pushing around his son, wife, father, and servants and were draining his household's resources. They were also basically threatening to brutalize and rape his wife out of spite because she was refusing to pick a husband.
