What do you do with bugs that you find in your house? Do you stomp on them or are you the kind of person who tries to make them into pets? :O

For me, if its a moth or something I squash it. D: I do try to capture crickets and let them outside... it's not easy though. x_x

As for spiders well... I leave my dad to deal with those. I should send them to Erica but... then I can't garauntee they'll be alive when she gets them. :<

I love spiders. XD
But every time I try to make them as pets, they always run away. DX

About ants,
I used to crush them when they came close but I couldn't stand the smell of formic acid. So know, I just ignore them.

About Dragonflies,
Same as spiders.

About Cockroaches,
These things are filthy and have a disgusting smell. Sometimes they spread disease. If I'm in the bathroom, I pour liquid soap on it because apparently, it kills them. If I'm in the kitchen, I smack it with newspaper. Everywhere else, I use a spray.

When I see a line of ants climbing on the wall, I'll spray 'em. I like to see them twitch and die... Same as cockroaches, although it's harder to beat. I have to stomp 'em for the finalle.

I usually leave spiders alone. They help on eating pesky bugs. :D

If they're in my room, I try my best to get back them outside. Although most things can wait a bit, spiders have to be dealt with asap, otherwise I'd get no sleep XD. Unfortunately I can't always free them.

The other month I was half asleep at my laptop when I caught sight of a fairly large (by house spider standards) spider on the wall next to me. Instantly wide awake, I lept off my bed and went for the bug catcher, which it seemed had been used by someone else earlier that day and not replaced. While looking for an alternative, I noticed the spider start heading for the gap between my bed/pillows and the walls. Realising that all hope of freeing it would be lost if it made it down there, I grabbed the nearest book and annihilated the poor creature for the greater good. Forgive me lord.

K story over :D

I usually just let them be.. unless they're a bee or wasp or something else which is obviously separated from its hive.. in which case i'll open the window or take them outside :v
if someone's phobic or otherwise panicking about a spider or insect indoors, then i'll take it outside.. though especially round this time of year I worry it'll be a bit cold :c

Can't bring myself to kill them, though. I have no idea what i'd do with an ant invasion, as I can't bear the thought of exterminating them, lame as that sounds [I love ants ;;]. the only non-destructive advice I can find is to remove the food supply they're using [leftovers or something] and then tape up the nest entrance :v
..but i'm sceptical. I'll just.. hope that ants stay outside because if they stayed inside they'd just get everywhere ;;

Usually there are crickets wandering around, because I keep them as live food for my chameleon.. so if I find one I tend to catch it and put it back in the cricket box if they're the same kind. If they're a different kind of cricket then I'll either leave them or put them outside :v

generally I try not to be too.. intervening o.o I dunno.
a couple of days ago there was a wasp buzzing at the window, but I was too slow at opening the window and it got caught in a spider's web :c felt rather guilty [..sh..] but spiders have got to eat.. eh D:

If they're inside, I kill. Outside, I let them be unless they land on me. If it's a bee I will try to flee due to bee sting allergies.

As I said in another topic, this is the time where bugs try to retreat indoors, so I've been kept busy :/

Bless you Halfwit <3
but oh gosh, that happened with my sister.. a wasp got in a spider web.. except the spider when to wrap it up and the wasp stung it. Poor thing bolted like you wouldn't believe ^^;


Eh.. I tend to try and help them get outside or ignore them.. depending on how in the way they're being.
Like.. I'm fine with spiders that live in my room and they have a corner and they don't leave that area, to me thats a mutual understanding and I appreciate that.. but things like wolf spiders than run around everywhere, I don't like so much.. I'll try and get someone to remove it but if people won't co-operate and i've been trying for hours to shepard it out of the room and it won't play ball I have been guilty of bringing out the vaccum cleaner.

I like moths and grasshoppers and things like that, but they're unpredictable and I can't say I much appreciate them going for my face.. none the less I won't kill them.. they're a pain ot catch/shepard though, bless em

Slugs and snails are just <3
I occasionally find wild ones in the kitchen, that have come in with the veg and I'm happy to take those outside :>

Probably sounds odd, but I've always wanted to have roaches in the house.. I've never seen a real one ^^; but I've always wanted to.. I don't get what people think is so disgusting about them, especially when they're living in your kitchen, I mean, they're in the same conditions you are, so you're at least as disgusting as them =P

Sparying insects just.. urg.. no.. horrible >:
Yeh.. generally don't like killing them and try to avoid it but.. if they will toy with my sanity, sometimes I fear it can't be helped.

Oversized reply, I do appologise.
It's a tiny little step -
- and there's no coming back.

I don't try making them pets, and neither do I kill them all the time. I only kill them if they are harmful to me in any way AND hasn't gotten out of my place even after trying to get it out.
The only exceptions are cockroaches and spiders. They are probably not much harmful for me, but I still make someone else kill them. I have arachnophobia to an extent, so spiders are out of question for me to deal with.

Spiders, ants, and cockroaches I'll kill. I just hate those things. However, I run away from the bigger spiders or just flush the toilet and have them be washed away. XD

Grasshoppers, moths butterflies, and larva (ones I know that are going to be butterfiles or moths) I keep them. Heck, there is one larva I had to take care of for one of my uni classes and he's actually fun to watch. :)

It wildly depends on my mood and the insect in question.

If it's a moth or harmless insect, I ignore it, unless it becomes a pest, then I swat it.
If it's a fly, I swat it, unconditionally. I hate them little suckers! They're SO ANNOYING!
If it's a spider, I leave it alone. No need to kill it unless it's a dangerous variety of spider, which I kill immediately for the greater good.
If it's ants, I grab a sponge, soap it up, scrub down their entire trail, wash the ants themselves down the drain, and clean up whatever it is I think they're after.

Generally, I don't go out of my way to kill the bug if it's not dangerous in some way, with the exception of flies, which I love to swat, since they're the most annoying creatures on the planet, when you're trapped inside with them. >_>

Depends on the insect. I would leave something like a fly alone, but a spider in the other case I would kill it.

I hate spiders.

Well we have a real bad stinkbug problem where I live during warm months and we usually flush them down the toilet or vacuum them up... But there are so many it takes a long time @[email protected]

In other cases, we don't get that many types of other bugs but if there is one I'd usually just get a tissue and squish them. But if they're bigger than an Ant I let my father take care of them xD

Death. >:D

If they wanted to live, they shouldn't have come inside.

I occasionally leave spiders alone, if they're like- on the ceiling or crawling in front of me when I'm not wearing shoes. Flies I always kill, unless I'm in a car, in which case I roll down the window so they gtfo.

Eww, bugs I squash right away. If it's a bee or wasp, I'll shoo it away through the window if I can't kill it. The only thing I can't squash are caterpillars. Those things rock.

Moths - Harmless li'l creatures, until they start to eat my clothes, and then my mom blames me for the holes in my underwear... I freak out as soon as I see one and I get scared and hide under my bedsheets, only to realize that they can eat almost any cloth-based item. Then, I get my aunt to kill it for me. Sometimes I spray my stinky cologn at them and they just fall down and die.
Flies - Annoying pests. They cannot eat their food if the food is undigested, so they throw up their stomach acid at your food and they start to suck it up. Gross and can get you sick... I first start to get paranoid and then I get my aunt to kill them. Sometimes I spray my stinky cologn at them and they just fall down and die.
Spiders - I spray my stink cologn on them and they die. Easy as that. Or I can get an aerasol air conditioning can and spray that instead.
Ants - They march in cute little straight lines. How funny! But I try to capture themm into my ant farm, and they die... Meh, spray them with air conditioner or bad cologne...
Cockroaches - Scream. Get someone else to kill it. Spray paint it.

I am scared of insects. Unless they are butterflies. I don't want to swat them because I'm not fast enough, so I just spray them with something like air conditioner(eek, bad for the enviornment?), cologne, or spray paint. Sometimes I'll get some wierd thing from the bathroom and hurt them with it.

Omg, I really hate insects. When I am outside, as long they don't land on me...I won't kill. If they are in my apartment, they are dead. I am sorry. I really don't get spiders or ants. I get cockroaches though. I kill those things with spray or a vacuum. Those are the most disgusting insects in the planet! God, I hate them so much!
