Recently we've found bed bugs in my place, harmless except for the red spots of irritation on hands and arms after they've vampired you at night. But there is a way to kill them without chemicals, it's micro-organisms that eat bugs, that's how these micro's survive, so I didn't feel bad getting rid of these nuisances in a completely natural way. Of course you can't eat the micro-organisms either or you'll get sick for a few hours but that's easy, you just don't lick the floor! LOL
I don't feel too bad about killing most insects because I know they don't feel pain the same way we do (you could say "at all" but there is the chance of some sort of emotional stress/pain). But there are some insects, like some types of moths or black ants, that I like to watch, and would feel bad killing.
I hate wasps with all the dark side of my heart and have no problem frying them to death with the bug zapper thing that looks like a tennis racquet. I usually catch spiders with a glass and have someone throw them outside (because I'm scared of them), but if there are no glasses handy, or the spider is in front of the glass cabinet, then I throw shoes at it until it's dead or crippled, the slap it a few more times with the shoe for good measure...
If I see a woodlouse or silverfish in the house, I generally just let them be. I don't even bother catching them and throwing them out.
Yup...i do. Even those roaches i hate (like, really hate). I never feel any kind of pleasure taking a life away. (But i must admit that smashing mosquitos does not give that TAHT much remorse...especially if they had drained my blood already)
Insects piss me off, especially when it's hot and they're all fluttering so happily in the sky - don't get me wrong, some of these creatures are beautiful..
...but my god I wish they'd stop getting in my hair! hdejgfekdf

Cockroaches, flies, mosquitoes and earwigs must die. Luckily, spiders are willing to help with that.
