Bumblebees and bees are very nice though! i pet bumblebees when i get the chance (ie, bother them when theyre trying to gather nectar) and i've never been stung by one

Yea when I was little I found out it took a lot before a bumblebee would sting, so I picked one up, threw it on my friend and it stung him. He wasn't happy.

I'm alright with insects.

Big motherfuckers need to get out regardless. I won't kill most if any insects unless it's pretty unavoidable I always prefer freeing them outdoors.

I quite like bees though when I was like 9 I was shit scared of bees and my Dad made me spend the day researching bees after that I've never been afraid to walk near them or being stupidly close to them. It helps when you know quite a bit about what they do.

Ggggggay!

Thank God for my flying flipflop, which works just as well as Link's magic boomerang.
Kinda like my guaranteed insect-away.

I am actually fairly sure I have entomophobia. Like seriously when there is a bug nearby and I see it I just freeze up in terror. If I had a bug fly directly at me man I would have a full on panic attack.

OMFG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i wouldn't live in a country where those Fire trUCKERS live! and poor mouse, what did she do to him omg, that guy who raised it is a monster! raising something like that should be punished :D
probably that "thing" one day will crawl onto his neck and eat him, or at least bite him so hard that he will bleed to death! this will happen, the same thing with lions, theyre cute and all but after a little while it eats everyone who fed them and lived with them!

Like a lot of people have said, spiders are actually our allies since they eat pretty much the rest of the bugs. Good thing is that here they're also not poisonous. Scandinavia is kinda nice in that we also have cold ass winters, half the year is bug free! Anyone who complains about the cold doesn't understand how grand that trade is.

If I would ever see one of those giant centipedes somewhere, I'd leave the country with the next plane, they're just stuff of nightmares. Also, all mosquitoes must die.

I'm not necessarily afraid of insects, but that doesn't mean I like them flying at me trying to bounce off my head, or into my ear, or up my nose. Size isn't an issue for me, but I absolutely HATE moths, butterflies not an issue, moths yes. Praying mantis, dragon flies, grasshoppers, crickets, most fairly common insects/larger ones don't bother me much at all. Hornets, wasps, mosquitoes, and horse/deer flies bother me as much as the next person, but I'm not scared of them. Whenever an insect does annoy me (that is to say, it repeatedly flies at me attempting to attack), I'll usually simply walk away from the area until it stops. Swatting at them usually makes them more aggressive, and doesn't result well in getting them to leave you alone. I have a pet tarantula and it crawling on my arm or my hand is not an issue for me at all, it hasn't bitten me, but that's because I am not scared of it biting me, if you are scared, then it probably will. Like I said above its mostly moths for some reason that I am actually somewhat scared of.
