when are you gonna grow up?
i dont think i kill anything, intentionally anyway. mozzies rarely bite me, i certainly hate flies (lol if they are in the house, i try catch them with plastic bags the let them out), as for maggots, i get as far as i can from the scene...
i let spiders roam free~ except for the big hairy ones, they need to leave.

I hate unnecisarily killing any animals..... even the ones I'm terrified, such as my deadliest of foes...the wasp...
But yes, sadly I see no other option than death, either because it is actualy wounded, so put it out its misery... or coz it catches me off guards.... or just because if I dont do it, someone else would (such as my sis, her fear of big spidies)...
...and yes, I always feel guilty....always... |

yea, that's true too... once it's injured, I figure I'm doing it a favor by ending him altogether. I still feel guilty about it

I don't think any bug should die...but only the ones that come inside the house. Those bugs are asking to die.  |

Its interesting... I've yet to see anyone actually complain about cruelty to bugs...
No PETA campaign, no RSPCA complaints, no nothing... Guess they're not important like rabbits and dolphins 'cause they're not cute. |

Depends where I am.
Any bugs inside the house must die. I have no patience to wait for it to crawl/fly outside or bring it outside so it can find itself back in the house in the future again.
I also have arachniphobia as well, so I tend not to like spiders a lot. I can usually kill them myself but I dislike doing that. I also hate accidently walking into spiderwebs outside, its very gross and annoying.
When I'm outside, its usually just mosquitos that die around me =P
There's probably couple billion insects for every person on this planet so my little executions probably have no impact on them.
Just stay outta my house and I leave them alone when I'm outside too.

God created every living creature for us so we could live in peace and harmony . so why do we have to destroy them in the first place?
are we fighting against God's creations???

there is a purpose for every living creature in this world
some to help others some to kill
it must be balanced or the world would crumble

Don't worry Black wraith, insects will be the longest living organism in this world once we kill ourselves. As humans, we over reproduce and aren't aware of our limited resources. Once the temperatures and our climate start flunctuating, we are the ones that will perish, insects will remain... and thousands of them.
Perhaps God did have a purpose for every being exising. But out of nature and fear, we kill them for our safety. It's a reaction. Human behavior is ugly, but it's the truth. If we fear something, we kill it.
...
In my case, I have a hard time killing things. I just don't like the thought of squishing them, their insides being forced outside and their epidermal layer being mutilated. It sends me the shivers. However, I have no trouble picking them up, or wafting them outside to do their business.
One exception would be extreme annoyance. If there is one fly being extremely stubborn, then I will whack it good. Annoyance brings out the best in me  . And although I'm deathly DEATHLY afraid of roaches, I will kindly ask my brother to throw it away |
