Which insect you hate most?

[Kbin47]

I hate mosquitoes. I wish I could kill all the mosquitoes. They are not only so annoying but also kills most humans every year. Every year 1 million people dies because of mosquito bite. But doesn't matter what it's also a part of our ecosystem and food chain. Otherwise I would love to live in a earth without mosquitoes.

Mosquito

Cockroach

Spider

Fly

Maybe roaches since they can infest the home if not taken care of quickly? For mosquitoes, this is a really strange thing but I don't seem to get bitten very often at all. One time I went hiking up a mountain close to evening time with a large group of friends and there were so many mosquitos, and when we reached the top everyone was covered in so many mosquito bites showing each other... except me. I didn't have a single one I could find. It's like they don't like me. I'm left out. Maybe my blood is poisonous or something.

[Kbin47]

Maybe you have some kind of antibody for mosquitoes or they don't like the perfume of your body.

[Obtuse]

I tend to wonder. I have a weird blood type: O-. And for some reason lots of people say I smell nice even with just soap and deodorant -- it's like people sniff me and say I smell nice, and it invites others to join and agree... but apparently mosquitos don't like it. :-D

[Kbin47]

That's it... Mosquito likes positive blood type and you smell different as well.

[ShadowofRegret]

Flies, for a guy who tries to keep everything clean, having a fly get in and start landing on everything really irritates me!

Have to hunt it down and kill it, then dispose of it and clean everything it landed on again... ugh!

Incidentally, I think spiders are cute!

[Kbin47]

I also don't like flies. They are so annoying and dirty.

[ShadowofRegret]

Agreed!

[EnglundUberAlles]

Spiders also catch flies, so that's a bonus.

[ShadowofRegret]

Another reason I keep the relatively harmless ones (like cellar spiders) around.

While mosquitoes are part of the food chain they're not a necessary food source for most animals. Even if they went extinct it wouldn't affect many species. I hate mosquitoes too.

[Kbin47]

We feel like they won't effect the food that much but many other insects eats mosquitoes... like gecko, spider and many fish eats mosquito eggs... So yea, many insects depend on them.

[jeemm]

Depend on them? Can you give me some source material for those claims? In the same way we humans eat chicken meat it would be absurd to say we would go extinct if all chickens were to disappear.

[Kbin47]

By depend I don't mean they only eat mosquitoes and all of them will die if all mosquito dies... But they will have less food and their number will decrease as well... which will effect the animals which eats them... it's like a loop.

[jeemm]

You could be right about that actually. I thought that maybe other insects would see a rise in quantity but that wouldn't be the case. The other insects would actually see their numbers diminished due to becoming pray to the predators of those mosquitoes. Although I'm no expert so better just not think about it too much.

[Kbin47]

Yea... I am not saying if we kill all the mosquitoes then we will die as well... but surely it will have some impact on other insects and animal. Albert Einstein said if all bees die then in next four years all human will die. But that's a different chapter

[jeemm]

Bees for sure have a big impact. I wouldn't say we will go extinct but it will affect us a lot.

[Kbin47]

Yea... No bees no honey. That's not good.

[jeemm]

Bees pollinate aka. make plants able to reproduce. You can see how it's important.

[mrfoox]

Tick. Fuck them honestly... I've never seen a cockroach since I don't think they're a thing in my country, otherwise they're my choice 😬

[Bananaman177]

You know how every time we talk about eradicating insects, some dipshit has to pipe up and say that "ACKSHUALLLY, they play a vital role in the ecosystem, blah blah blah..."

I think we should kill those people first and then worry about the bugs.

[Kbin47]

There are people who doesn't care about anything but themselves. Every insects/animal whatever they do they do it to survive. But There are people who kills animal for fun, luxury and fancy dress or food. Shark fin soup... Doesn't taste good.. still some people will spend lot of money for it. Some will say it's just a shark fin but many shark dies because of just cutting it's fin. Many times we don't care about little things... but doesn't realize that this little things create big impact later. Wanna know about someone's characteristics... pay attention to the little things as well... You will know.

The typical red wasp that hangs around homes all over America. They are the only thing I am deathly allergic to. Every time I am outside, I have to be extra careful not to encounter them out of fear of getting stung. I know they are not aggressive except around their nest, but the risk is always present for me. Makes it hard for me to enjoy the outdoors. Wouldn't be so bad if they did not pick the most random and inconvenient spots for their nests.

[devilish-cutie]

Mosquitos love me so you can imagine but cockroaches by far!!! If you haven't lived with cockroaches you know nothing!!

[Kbin47]

I have lived. Bring a street cat, keep it home for a week or two... All cockroach will be gone.

[devilish-cutie]

My whole apartement building had it. Luckily I moved.
What about fleas? cats bring those... I have lived trough that when it spread too! HORRIBLE also! Yet not on a list!

[Kbin47]

Bed bugs are horrible too

[devilish-cutie]

ew luckily no experience with that
but cockroaches no 1 for me

[Pamina]

Cockroaches creep me out like almost no other animal. Mostly the way they move.

[douride2]

The mosquitoes around here in the summer will carry you away.

[EnglundUberAlles]

Just so you know, spiders aren't insects. They're arachnids and most of them are harmless (here in the UK at least).

[Dchrls78104]

Just the sight of a cockroach disgusts me and makes me want to kill it.

[MeanderingTrex]

All have a purpose except mosquitoes

[Prakbio]

i hate fly and cockroach most

[Exorcist_Rampage]

Probably mosquitos because they are aggravating.

[Kbin47]

They are also aggressive. They will try to suck your blood and They don't care if they die doing it.

[bangyourhead]

I hate fire ants more.

[The_man_whol_aughs]

The motherfucking mosquitos

[oldoldold]

Ticks

[Kbin47]

Gecko doesn't bother me because it doesn't hurt me and eats mosquitoes... So👌

[oldoldold]

Oh... your off your meds
