Do you freak out whenever a bug/insect is in the vicinity or on you?
Eh, depends what bug. If it's a mosquito I go "There's a mosquito in the room..." and try kill it. Multiple times. But if it's a cockroach I pretty much freak out. Ants, not too much.

Would you kill a bug/insect on sight?
Once again, it depends what bug. Not a cockroach, to be honest I would be too freaked out to kill it. Mosquitoes, yes. Ants & spiders... yes. Not afraid of them though. I don't kill garden insects though. Well except the mosquitoes that sometimes gather around plants. xD And believe it or not, I used to have a fear of butterflies when I was young.

Have you ever kept an bug/insect as a pet in your whole life?

I've kept several grasshoppers and caterpillars before. It would be so fun to set the butterflies out of the box when they had finished growing, haha. We also set grasshoppers free after a while.


The more precious the thing is, the more easily it is broken.

  • Do you freak out whenever a bug/insect is in the vicinity or on you?
Yes, I do.Around me, in a 50 foot radius of me, on me, et cetera. I flip out. D= I hate those creepy crawlies! >< But, I must say, I simply adore praying mantises and caterpillars. =3 As long as the caterpillar is a Western Tent Caterpillar. XD Or even a Banded Wooly Bear. <3 Über cute!

  • Would you kill a bug/insect on sight?
No way! D= Not unless it's a fly/mosquito/flea. =3 Then fly/mosquito/flea be gone! >3 But other than flies/mosquitoes/fleas, I normally try to set the bug free outside. If that fails, THAT'S when I just kill it. Poor bug. =( I really don't enjoy killing them. .

A couple of caterpillars once, but that's it I believe.

Depends. I don't really like flying things [expept ladybirds] and I don't really like spiders either. Certain beetles can be cute. :3

Would you kill a bug/insect on sight?
I always ask my mum to do it, I don't really like it.. I might miss and they might get angry and come and kill me with their stingers, poison, etc. ;;

I kept a cute grasshopper in my room for a while, but it jumped away :[

I'm known to freak out if I hear a slight buzzing near my head - I have a huge phobia of bees and wasps, and it's better to be safe than sorry o.o

-Not really. I keep my distance, but I definitely don't scream, panic or anything else.

Would you kill a bug/insect on sight?
Depends. Mosquitos and spiders yes, everything else I would tend to just relocate.

Have you ever kept an bug/insect as a pet in your whole life?
Uh... no. Nor do I ever plan to.

Bugs have such pathetically short life-spans anyways that it doesn't bother me to kill them, but if it's not too much trouble I'll just move them.

I hate spiders only. There was one in my bed (a deadly one) back in...4th or 5th grade and I've never been able to stand them anymore. Haha.

Other bugs, I don't mind though. Except ants and bees.

If I could, yes.

I kept a Japanese Beetle or something for a day or two, but it died. Aside from that, not at all.

Bugs really disgust me and I would never ever touch them. With that said I also don't really like to kill them. With the exception of mosquitoes and roaches (my sister brought them over from an apartment she stayed at. >_<), I really don't kill them.

The most disgusting kind to me is moths. Moths really creep me out.
