One bit me in the Caribbean and my finger swelled to like 3x normal size. That day started my terror.

We have centipedes at my aunt's house. They're very poisonous. I hear that if they bite you, you go numb and die.

I dunno if my aunt was exaggerating or not, but either way doesn't sound good.

Your aunts a liar, I hope the centipedes get her.
 
I would kill most, if I wasn't so damn lazy :(:up:
 
Sometimes, I let the spider go, so he can kill pests for me.
If he gets in my way, I'll kill him.
 
If they are dangerous, I kill them. But I always feel kind of bad about it. Especially a bat or a rat or a mouse. But I can't take a chance on them biting the family. So if they get in the house, I kill them. Hornets, wasps, etc. Spiders that bite (we've got some mean ones out here) and other dangerous things.

As for a moth, I'll try to cup it in my hands and take it outside, same for other less dangerous creatures. I guess I'm not brave enough to catch a bat. So I kill that which I fear.

Are House spiders dangerous?

I always think they are poisonous.

Bats fly in your house? :eek:
 
To "the amazing lee",
They have traps that catch mice alive, so you can let them go. I have found the absolute best bait for mice is a nice, aromatic scoop of peanut butter.

Trust me on this. I kill a lot of things.

But I respect your wish not to harm a little creature. Good luck.

They don't everywhere? Hmm, I didn't know that. One season we had five. I used to jump (and screech) when I see a mouse, so a rat with fangs and wings was horrifying. I could barely move.

So when I found a bat flying in the room the first time, I made my wife shut the door behind me so I would HAVE to fight the thing. Which I did. I eventually got good at it. And, strangely, I'm not afraid of mice anymore.

Lol.
Do you live in Arizona?
 
I don't think I'd try to kill a little mouse if I could get rid of it in another way. Everything else can die.

I couldn't kill a cute mouse, or even a big ass rat.
I couldn't imagine stomping the hell out of it.

I'd just leave him a trail of food the hell out of my house.
 
I had 8 flies in my kitchen today, disrupting my cooking!...I'm sorry, but they had to go! :mad:

Oh, and I'm currently making money killing mice anyway... :D

Any mammal "pests" and spiders are allowed to survive by me (my six cats are a whole other story), but all insects are terminated with extreme predjudice.
 
I have dozens of spiders (mostly the "daddylonglegs" kind) scattered in my basement and they piss me off...I wish they would all find some other dwelling to lay their eggs and die! :mad:

If you have cats or dogs, they'll kill the little critters for you, and the dogs might eat them. :(
 
Towel whipping is the best way to get rid of flies.
 
If you get flying ants, punch the hell out of it when it lands.
 
If they bug me, I try to catch them in a cup or somethhing and take them outside and let them go.
 
I can't sleep knowing there's a live insect in my room, so if I see one and it's below eye-level, I'll kill it. If I have to reach up to kill it, I'll get someone taller. I have a fear of them falling on me.

A spider nested in my room when I was a kid and a few hundred baby spiders hatched. That was one of the worst nights of my life.


Oh, and I agree with whoever said that centipedes are the worst... they really are.
 
If only I had a flying dog that could fly to the ceilings and eat the spiders... :mad:

centipedes come around every once in a while. I manage to find a small one in the house maybe twice a year.


holy crap, now I'm paranoid now. I haven't seen one in about 6 months.. :(

Are centipedes that bad? I'm not sure whether I've even seen one before.
 
Centipedes and millipedes are poisonous, as are all species of spider. It's just a variation of degrees.

To me, they're just like spiders, only 3 times more annoying...They're a bit more independent than spiders I would say,..

I'm not even gonna post any pics because....eww..
