I love insects. They're adorable. I used to raise a mantis and I hope to do so again someday.

I never kill insects. I won't even kill dangerous ones like scorpios. They're too cool. I only kill flies, mosquito and the like which are a bother.

What about you?

EDIT: I'm including spiders, crabs, snails, slugs and all the other weirdos.

I love insects, and invertebrates in general. Entomology is something I'd like to study more in-depth, if the opportunity ever presented itself.

I really hate insects. I cant stand most of them, but there are a few I actually like.
I try not to kill them, but sometimes I do. If it's like a spider I'll call my parents or my brother to take care of it, spiders are the worst (even though I know they arent technically insects).

I hate most of them. Especially spiders and those really big mosquitoes + their non winged counterparts (longlegs or w/e they're called). Some I don't mind though. Like bees, moths, butterflies, orb weaver spiders (no idea why they're an exception), and wasps (as long as they stay right the hell away from me).

I can deal with spiders for a bit until they start to multiply and I have no choice but to kill some to keep the population in control.. other insects are automatically destroyed u___u

I don't really care about insects that much, but I do wind up squashing them sometimes, especially if they're spiders. I used to remove the legs of these harvestmen spider thingies when I were younger, and turned them into little spider balls.

I am terrified of gastropods, particularly slugs. I have minor heart attacks whenever I encounter one or see one, and I can't go outside during the evening because I might stumble across one without being prepared. It's awful.

Creepy insects: cockroaches, maggots, moths, spiders, beetles.
Cute insects: ants, flies, ladybugs, snails, bumble bees.
If you generalize, you're wrong.

Don't mind bugs, we used to keep a few spiders around the house to deal with flies (before we got our windows fixed, old farm house with no A/C.. Rip). Flies, mosquitoes, and wasps all piss me off though, kill them on sight.

i eat insects whenever i see them
just do the math
depending on where you live you could see a ton of them
just eat every one you see and skip lunch
it adds up real quick and is probably healthier then the shit you were planning on eating

daddy-long legs are great, because they are natural predator of poisonous spiders as well as the smaller insects. they also don't disturb you and is harmless. they also look cute <3

Not all of them look cute.

When I was a kid I used to squash these really tiny red bugs that were on my back porch and draw with their remains. Nowadays I generally kill bugs on site unless it's a stink bug, rolly polly, ladybug, or lightning bug.

I try to get spiders out to my front porch so they'll eat bugs there and not in my apartment. Anything else all best are off, it's gonna die.

Winter here makes it so things like cockroaches can't thrive, luckily. No huge variety of insects here in the first places
