bug rescuing

[Matej]

Well. I don't like smashing bugs and I don't do that. And it seems as if I'm the only one like that, around here anyway, in my family.
And also, every time before taking a shower I make sure there are no bugs there in the bath and move outside all those that are there. Dunno, can't see why I should just kill every single bug I see, just because it's bug or what? They don't bother me, so I let them live.

of course

i'm still trying to reckon with my various bias'nesses

i've squashed quite a few in the last week that i didn't feel (as much) sorry about (but usually i say one big ""prayer"" for them all at night asking forgiveness)

but do you know what i did last night? it seemed inhuman. do you know what i plan to do with the rest? inhuman

i wish the sonofabitches would leave before it happens. i tried to send them a mental warning first.

i won't tell you what i did last night. it was too wrong.

a glue pad.

oh dam.

what the **** is wrong with me? what did they ever do to me.

now its suffering.

a quick death would've of been more right, but still feels so wrong.

i'll never know what to do or where i belong

I just killed another bug. This time a cricket. WHY DO THEY LIKE MY SHOWER?! -_-

I even rescued him with the wash cloth and put him on a dry shelf in my shower but he jumped off and drowned in the water anyway....

o_-

I really try not to kill bugs. I pick them up and set them outside.

not a good answer for me eris. i live in an older house that they do take advantage of.

but i don't want them in it!

i wish there was somewhere else for them to go.

this weekend, i'm lowering my head, and beginning an extermination prossess.

something i know that isn't natural, something i know that isn't good for the ground, something i know isn't good for my children in the long run either. or anyone else.

poison.

i hang my head down and cry

 

[SophiaGrace]

*sigh* bugs. -_-

I'm sorry if my previous post was TMI.

 

[eris]

If there were bugs everywhere I would kill them, for sure

Poison may work...

I live in an apartment.

Where do you live ?

My philosophy is as follows: If it looks violent or aggressive, and/or makes a sound when it walks, it does not belong in my house.

Now I am imagining a heavy-footed giant spider that can make the floorboards creak as it strolls through the house.

To Csmswhs: I am a killer of spiders. *sigh* My kids scream at me until I kill the "huge, giant, gross" spider that inevitably looks like a speck.

The general rule is: Stay the **** off of me and places you don't belong, like my bed, and you won't get hurt.

Ironically, the kids were absolutely fascinated by a black and yellow garden spider we'd had in the yard a few years ago. We named her Frieda. This thing was enormous, I mean if I'd seen her inside I'd have screamed until I'd ruptured my throat. Outside, though, she was pretty cool. See?

I have no sympathy for wasps.

Yeah me neither. Wasps and hornets, no. I got attacked by a swarm of white-faced hornets one year when my dad had me trimming the hedge with a pain of ancient, rusting hedge-clippers. Unbeknownst to either of us there was a nest of white-faced hornets in the hedge.

I got stung by several of them and my hand swelled up like a balloon.

WTF kind of monster spiders do you have in Idaho?!

 

[SophiaGrace]

That cricket I thought was dead last night? It's gone. I left it lying on the drain grates in my shower, with stiff legs and crossed arms. It looked quite dead. When I went in my bathroom this morning though and looked at the drain grate, it was gone.

IT LIVES!

Allow me, madam, to acquaint you with my grizzly, voracious foe in the wilds of the Inland Northwest; a persistent invader, aggressive to the end and packing enough heat to cause the necrosis of entire limbs with a single bite.

This villain is none other than...


THE HOBO SPIDER

You see them everywhere here this time of year. I crushed like 6 of them in the truck bay so far this season. Some houses are infested to hell; I advocate the burning of such domiciles, but I can't seem to gather much support for my mission of peace. There's lots of other hairy little intruders, including the occasional Brown Recluse, but none so infamous as this little devil. Fast, camouflaged for most environments, and mean as ****, he is a worthy foe. And woe upon he who crushes the female Hobo Spideress who is tending children! For myriad tiny demons cling to her hindquarters, and in the event of their maternal host being crushed under your foolish heel, they FLEE IN TO THE NETHER REGIONS OF YOUR HOUSE, where they grow large, eat your damn cat, and plot your inevitable demise under a thousand skittering, chitinous legs.

What's that, you ask? "Is he a motherf*cker?" WHY YES HE MOST CERTAINLY IS JUST LOOK AT THAT ******* AND TELL ME HE ISN'T

IF YOU HAVE DRAWN A CORRELATION BETWEEN MY BEING SURROUNDED BY 8 LEGGED FIENDS AND MY LOVE OF THE MOVIE STARSHIP TROOPERS, YOU ARE AN ASTUTE OBSERVER.


Please excuse me while I tear my room apart to make sure there are no spiders in it after seeing that picture.

I have never been stung by any flying insect, ever.

I am 30 years and one month old. I grew up in the country, and one time had wasps hatch in my house. I have been around many bees.especially.while.trying.to.drive.

I have never been stung.

They know I am their master.

Well, sonofabitch. OMG my skin is now crawling. I am sitting here with my feet up in the couch now.

I thought wolf spiders were ugly fuckers. *shudder*

No, they are waiting for the most opportune time to strike. HTH!
