I'm only scared of bugs that can actually hurt me, or have really annoying bites like mosquitoes.
So stuff like wasps are bad, spiders are good, moths are fine, and deer flies are terrible.
Time flies like an arrow; fruit flies like a banana.

I work at a Pizza Delivery place in Central Florida. We close at 230 am on the weekends so im there till about 3am cleaning up.

At about 1am all of the other stores in the area close down and go home.

At this time the cockroaches come out. All shapes and sizes. They climb all over the doors and windows of the store, front and back.

You can hear them crawling all over the building.....Just trying to find a way in.

Inevitably I have to open the door to make a delivery.

I feel like the star of a zombie movie, trying to escape to save humanity from starvation.

At first the cockroaches run from the moving door, but like a loud shadow they rush towards the closing light, most dont make it in time, a few get crushed by the door,

The few that get in, die due to the insecticide and bug killers before they even make it a few feet into the lobby.

When I return I park away from the store, I dont want Cockroaches to invade my car. Its not as secure.
I come back to repeat my door dash, except this time i jump over all of the bodies that have accumulated in my absence.

At night they have to be swept away, but in the morning there are always more bodies.

Moral of the story:
Give us a decent tip. Drivers remember who doesnt tip or tip well


awesome story. lol

If i know the bug/spider is harmless, i don't really care how it looks

If its harmful well, i will treat it like a threat and do whatever i can to avoid it neutralise

if im not sure its harmful, i will treat it as harmful.

The fuckers i hate most are ticks, because at least here they can infect you with some pretty nasty shit like lyme disease or encaphalytis

Just the other day i felt smth in my hear and pulled out a tick before it managed to embed himself into my skin, and today i caught one crawling on my jeans, shitty motherfucker.

Did i mentioned they embed themselves into your soft and precious skin?

Good news is that they embed only partially, bad news is that they are a bitch to pull out fully.

Where I live we dont have too many scary insects. Im ok with spiders but the jump spiders kinda freaks me out. And those big nasty flying things that always get into your room in the summer nights when you have the window open due to the heat. They cant even fly properly and just crash to the floor all the time. So you lie there in your bed and hear them flying around and bumping into things and you know its just a matter of time b4 one of them come crashing down on your face.

For a while the apartment I lived in had a problem with those fucking nasty ass "house centipedes". They're already been covered in here. Uughghghghghhhh those things should be eradicated from the Earth.

Anyway the way I dealt with them is a dustbuster filled with moth balls. Suck them up, and they die horribly in the chamber. You can hold it like a gun too and pretend ur hunting zerglings.

Just be sure to remember to hotkey ur comsat station in case they burrow under the door.

Had a run in with this lil fella on my vacation. Wading in a stream, i stepped on a 'sharp rock' shrieked like a girl and swam to shore.

Saw this fucking thing latched on to my ankle and i kicked and screamed for like 10 minutes.

Locals call em toe biters and they inject saliva into their bite and suck out the gooey remains of their victims. IT HURT LIKE HELL I TELL YA

For me, it really depends on the characteristics and behaviors of the bug in question. Flying bugs in general annoy me with how unpredictable they are and I prefer to kill/relocate them, especially wasps and bees. Small crawling bugs aren't a problem, unless they bite or have some other bothersome trait. Spiders just making webs and killing off insects I don't mind at all either, unless they're doing it in inconvenient places.

The only bugs I really despise are mosquitoes (really annoying and serve no beneficial purpose, plus they transmit diseases) and certain large crawling types like cockroaches (outright disgusting). Fortunately where I live there aren't very many large insects, so I rarely encounter anything that really puts me off.

Bees don't do shit.. unless you proxy harass them... just let em be... and they won't fuck your shit up..

WASPS on the other hand, are solely instated in the world to annoy, irritate and wreck havock in ANYBODYS business... humans, animals, other bugs... WASPS don't give a fuck.. they just want everybody to have a bad day..

Solution:

Kill these motherfuckers with an electrified slapper.... THIS:

If there are a lot of WASPS, kill that fucking shit with Fire... Run ... OR get some smoke..

<~ Completely terriffied of insects/spiders. Especially spiders..

Tho those "house centipedes" would be enough for me to move out of the country... would only take one of those be4 i gtfo of there.

seriously this thread is going to give me nightmares and i am just soooooooo happy i didnt see this thread be4 going to sleep.....

uuggghh hate spiders/bugs. ><

there is literally not a single bug or spider in ehre that i am not like "GTF away!!!" except for the butterfly..and the prayingmantis is sick..but only if you respect them and give them their space. Everytime i see a praying mantis i expect it to perform some sort of kung fu attack on me maybe thats why i fear/respect them... like the old chinese guy who never speaks but always has a serious look on his face.

mosquitos are my nemesis tho.

Went to Mammoth in the summer for family vacation... drench myself in bug repellant every day.
End of the trip i have over 30 mosquito bites in a 4 day trip... am expecting to die of malaria.

My family that all slept in the same motorhome as me.. the most any one of them had was 4...

and NO I DONT EAT BANANA's AND I HATE PEOPLE WHO SAY THAT TO ME AS I AM SUFFERING FROM MOSQUITO BITES.

There's no reason to be afraid of spiders... they basically eat all the other bugs that piss you off and spiders basically never bite anything as big of a threat as a moving human. I regularly save insects (moths, centipede, beetles) if they are stuck somewhere. The only ones I really kill are mosquitoes. I like to catch flying bugs and throw them in spider webs and watch them get eaten. Go team spiders!

The only bug I don't want to land on me is a wasp/hornet. The rest I usually deliver to safety.
