If you ever woke up with any part of your body really swollen because something bit you while you slept and you had to go to the ER only to hear someone tell you it was a poisonous spider and btw drop your pants for a shot that's gonna hurt you more than it will me.........you'd kill every spider that crawled into your house. Then there's those quarter sized hairy ones that chase you and out of defense, you have no choice.
And how about attack of the killer bees while you're only trying to mow the lawn in the back of your house. You can't really kill them because they've already stung you along with 6 of their family members, so they're going to die anyhow. Sometimes for bees, life isn't fair, but they should think about that before they harm someone that has done nothing to them. |

I'm a catch and release girl. I've even been known to allow a spider to live happily in my kitchen by the back door. In that apartment I had a horrible problem with crickets and rolly-polly bugs coming in at the back door. When this garden spider took up residence I let it stay. It grew fat and sassy on a steady diet of crickets and rolly-pollys. The only drawback was I had to clean up the carcasses. When my cat moved in I evicted the spider because I didn't want it to fall victim to her.
:playingcat: I am deathly allergic to bees, wasps, hornets and yellow jackets. But I don't believe in killing them either. |
Nope...
Newp newp newp....... Bugs & I have an understanding... Or at least, I believe we do..... Outside?...Dat's yo' shit..Your world...Big bad wide World, if I walk out there barefoot, I had it comin', I deserve to Howl in Pain cuz u Bit my Big Toe in your Territory, my dumb-ass risks Anaphylactic Shock, if I don't duck and cover, or walk Sloooooooowly away from BumbleBees YellowJackets, Wasps etc, whatevah.... Now, having said that, bugs walk past my "fortified" Screen Door? That's my fuckin' Territory, kiss your fuckin' ass Goodbye *MWAH* bye-bye... Ticks, Fleas, Flies, roaches, Scorps, Spiders of any kind....Especially Fat, brown/black, big-ass kind that can possibly kill my Ferrets. U crossed into my house, your Instinct should tell u "bad idea"... It doesnt? tough...You're meetin' your maker if I find u... I dont need nobody screaming bloody murder in the bathroom if a spider lands on their ass while heavily Soaped up....I dont need to encounter a Spider, roach, fire ant, anything with 6 or more legs and capable of Painfully biting me in my bed while I'm minding my business, or havin some intimate time... My bed doesnt resemble grass, my shower doesnt resemble your Home.... I love insects, they're Fascinating, Reptiles as well... I don't give any indication my Home is cozy enough for an insect, the occasional Grasshopper/Cricket hops in ? Kewl, Chirp away, if My ferrets pounce and munch on you? Sayonara, Protein for my babies... LadyBugs? they're Awesome, bring Good Luck... More than 100 on my ceiling? fuck that, especially...Especially when I'm being nice and Humanely removing them, and they let out this Astonishingly Stinky defense bomb.... Mosquitos always die horribly in my house, Those Bitches carry viruses {Only Females Suck Blood, to sustain their larvae} Hornets, Wasps, Bees Will die a crunchy sudden Death if Indoors...Understand my point on this..I'm allergic...almost everyone that knows me in the Real World will understand my sudden Panic... Mind u, I don't scream, Screaming only encourages the fuckers, I learned this at the tender age of 8.... I carefully just get the fuck outta dodge....if it's in the car, whoever's drivin better fuckin stop or do somethin'...Fast....:bomb: Some Bee's{Bumblebees , for instance, Yellow Jackets} don't lose their Stingers...regular garden variety honeybee, yeah they Do....but with my Luck? I'll probably bump into a Queen or 2... If u ever dealt with fire ants invading your small lil home, as a child, u'll sympathize with why I dont anthropomorph any insect.... I'll gladly light Citronella on my Porch, I'll use Bug Zappy light if I can afford it when Camping. Bug's are cool, Outside my sanctuary...:sunglass: |

Then there's "The Moving Story" about the time my ex and I moved to Jacksonville, FL from Richmond, VA. :|
We stopped at a Comfort Inn along I-95 in South Carolina, just shy of the Georgia line. I wanted to push for Savannah, since I was driving, but my ex, who had been mortally terrified (and refused to drive) the 26 ft. Ryder truck with the auto transport (carrying my truck), was so at her wit's end that she insisted that we stop. When we first got the room, it looked really nice. The A/C didn't work too well, much to MY dismay, but the room looked clean and so we unpacked our overnight stuff and I headed for the shower. I had just stepped out of the shower when I heard Jan scream like bloody hell. I tore out into the room, naked, to see what she was screaming at, and I just caught a glimpse of a lizard with a bright red tail as it scooted across the floor. By this time, Jan's on top of the bed screaming "Get it!! Get it!! Get it!!" at me and pointing. :| Jan didn't even want me to pull my shorts on. She wanted me to go, right away, and KILL this thing, whateveritwas. (I put a pair of shorts and a t-shirt on anyway). So, I then grab the plastic wastebasket and go seeking this thing out (read...on the hunt). There it was, trying to hide under the window air conditioner. It looked like some sort of what we used to call a "skink". It was a scaly black lizard, about 4-6 inches long, black with a bright red tail. I popped the trash can over it and start scooting the can across the floor to the door, which looked like it had an open crack of about 1 inch under it. Well, the can was a good idea.....scooting it quickly over the carpet (very low pile, btw), was not. In my haste to scoot this thing out the door, its tail got caught under the lip of the can and IT. BROKE. OFF. AND WAS TWITCHING. :| By this time, Jan, who is from Ontario Canada (the land of little to no "strange bugs and creatures") was beyond traumatized. I scooted the now tailless lizard out the door and the broken tail behind it. No sooner had the lizard made its departure, Jan was off the bed, gathering all of our stuff up and threatening me with every heinous, hideous consequence she could pull out of her brain to threaten me with, if I didn't get us out of that damned place and into a decent, bug/lizard/creature free hotel. She wasn't kidding, either. As tired as I was, I got us out of there and down the road to Savannah. (That was her "Welcome To Dixie" initiation. :pointing:) For several months, Jan refused to even discuss "the event" that happened to us during that move. I'm sure that, to this day, wherever she is now, she would absolutely, beyond question refuse to stay in another Comfort Inn. The End. ~Theo~ :bouquet: |
I try to let them go if I can :)

Mind U i got nuthin against Reptiles/Amphibians in my House....
Salamanders, Lizards, Iguanas and Coquies were Regular visitors....and yes, I'd be Tickled to hear a femme Shriek, top of her Lungs...when a thumb size Coqui [tree frog, originally Native only to Puerto Rico...now a "Plague" in Hawai'i *pffft...whateva] joined her in the Tub.....I carefully took him out and tell him he's an ambitious little shit goin after MY girl...and let him out in the plants, I know it's a he, cuz males, if I understand are the only Loud Vocal ones..... That and, they liked crunchy spiders, Pinchy Pinchy millipedes, wounded bees etc.. for Lunch, so, welcome, circle of Life and such.-s- |
I'm for peaceful co existance...
Except the blood suckers, black widows, brown recluse, and copperheads/water mocks... I love bee's, have handled wasps, yellow jackets... I'm not alergic and I think a lil pain on my part is worth helping them out of the house.. I will try to shoo any flying thing out of the house.. even flys... Unless you annoy me... If you annoy me, startle me, then more than likely you are dead... I like spiders in my house and will put up with lil bites and the webs.. Until my kid come up with bites on his leg... then it's time to clean out the cobwebs and vacuum up all the lil dark spots and high spots.. Cockroaches? Water Bugs? Death on the spot and I'm doing a full clean to find out why I have them.. I will use sweet traps for you to take back to your homes... Ants.. same thing.. find out where they are coming in and stop them.. I really do prefer to live and let live.. |
if you scare me..........you're dead.......squished between my thumb and forefinger or my boot heel or the newspaper or nuked or dead by whatever means are at hand.......
otherwise.........if you come in my house, I will warn you....twice....the third time you be dead whether by thumb and finger or the 'nuclear option'.......... I give them a chance to go away in peace....if they don't.........shrug......a warning was given twice.... bugs/spiders/crawly things do not attempt to live in or visit my house without peril |
random big ass san antonio texas cockroach story:
in the army living in the barracks.....hot humid miserable ass San Antonio summer......... laying on my bunk in t-shirt and boxers sweating like a pig.....stoned out of my mind off some really good direct from thailand 'buddha weed'....it was the Army in 1972.... I swear this is a true story... there was this big ass dead roach laying by a locker.....well....about 12 of his buddies come in double file (it is a military post) and picked up that dead roach and caried him out the door..... I swear on my mother it really happened and was not a function of smoking a couple of big fat joints of buddha weed prior to the incident....... I could tell ya stories about the candy bar machines and what was in those wriggly candy bars that fell down in that slot....and none of those incidents were under the influence of any mind altering substances either........ really......... promise...... honest....... |

BUGS!
I studied Entomology for a three years, I really love bugs! They have to really get on my bad side to kill them. Right now, I can't think of a good reason to kill an insect. At dusk, I love to watch the little bat fly into the sky insearch of insects. I love what they do for my garden, I love to watch them as they go their busy way.
Don't get me wrong, I'm still trying to figure out the benificial factors of fleas and ticks! SF_Boi |
Found a ladybug on the kitchen faucet, our door is open so the cat can enjoy the sunroom. I put the ladybug on some of our indoor plants. Hope it feeds well.

I do not like bugs in my house. They die, except spiders. Spiders eat the bugs that do not belong there, so for the most part, I leave them alone. In Oklahoma there were these big, nasty bugs, I thought they were jumping spiders, but someone told me they were crickets. They LOOKED exactly like spiders though... I called them criders, lol (cricket/spider). Those damned things would hop after me and chase me down the hallway. I couldn't even get close enough to kill them. They are scary!!!

We have flease. we have done flea spray, capstar, first shield, advantage, flea collars, yard spray, 8 pounds of borox, and dawn soap.
We- the dogs and now me, anytime I sit down for a second that is, still have the damn fleas. We have vacuumed the house. Even the hard wood floors. Thrown away dog pillows and blankets. Got rid OUR mattress. I am loosing my mind. Maybe I DO want a collar. A flea collar of my very own. |
