Answer 1

I hate spiders. Hate them hate them hate them. I found a photo of one in particular that I found repulsive enough to share with you -

The fire ant. There are few things which are worse than being stung by these things right between your toes!

Cockroaches. If I even HEAR the word cockroach while I'm eating I completely lose my appetite.

Answer 2

Here are my three answers:

1. Ants because they're creepy crawly things and because they come into our house and they're attracted to food so they are always on our dirty dishes. They're everywhere!! So we have to put ant poison stuff out so they will be attracted to the sweet smell, but then die. And then we have to wash the dishes twice as hard just to get rid of them and make sure no more are on them. It really stinks too. And here's a link to the a picture of two ants. Though it's quite small.

2. Masquitos because they can spread diseases easily and they bother people because all they do is buzz around your head and bite you and that leads to scratching at that all day long. I really don't know why God made those creepy little creatchers that have no use, but there must be a pretty good explanation somewhere. And here's the link to a picture of a masquito too.

3. And last, but not least, umm.........forget that last part, house flies. I pick house flies because they're nasty little creatchers and all they do is buzz around and poop everywhere. And they also bite which is another thing I hate about them. I don't know why they were made either. But they poop on absolutely EVERYTHING!!! To the food on the table, to the trash in the garbage, EVERYTHING!!! And also here's a link to a picture of a house fly.

Hope this helps you to answering your quetion!! Have a terrific day!!! :o)

Answer 3

Sorry, Pickie. I am not a person who is scared of ANY bugs. Like Gil Grissom, I find them ABSOLUTELY fascinating. My kids used to bring home weird looking bugs all the time. I wished I had had the Internet then, already. They could have learned a whole lot more and way faster than trying to remember when we went to the library.
By the way y'all, a spider is NOT an insect, it is an arachnid.

EDIT: check out this cool site that has origami paper bugs. There are even instructions on how to fold some of them!

Answer 4

1. Caterpillars turning into butterflies. Just plain weird! 2. Flies. Where they last landed at? Dog poop? Gross! 3. Don't know. Nature intended all for some sort of goal in life. yes, my avatar is the best!

Answer 5

Those flying rouches I think the soft word for them is Palmetto bugs. Twice I've wondered what is that flying toward me?
Only once did it land on me , the other time I was happy to stub my toe to get out of the way.
Those bluish wasps - another one I was happy to fall over and bleed to escape from..crickethunter wasp; and lots of spiders- mostly black widows- never ran from them though.
That's why I list them last.

The true reason why I hate a spider is... I was trying to light a punk on the 4th of july while it was raining so I went under the overhang to do it. All of a sudden I feel something in my hair. And it had REALLY REALLY long legs not like regular spiders. But really long legs. I droped the punk and lighter and ran screaming.

Answer 7

Well, I don't think anyone needs a link to these, very common.
1) roaches - Nasty, just think of all the really grungy thing they crawl on, not to mention possible disease carriers.
2) flies - A flying maggot, need I say more.(same as above)
3) flea's - They are just pure nasty! Carry disease's of all kinds
very mobile parasite. I really don't want to see these if its OK with you. LOL Have a Great Day! Can't say they freak me out,"I just have a huge distaste for em'"

Answer 8

Bees

Eek it was really hard to see pictures of all them. I feel all itchy now. UGH

I don't know why I hate them all so much, it's just bugs in general. I've ALWAYS been TERRIFIED of bugs. They are just gross little hairy, buzzy creatures that scare me to death. You can't reason with them and just ask them to leave you alone, most of them bite and I hate the way they feel when they land on me. I flail my arms around wildly and freak out.

Answer 9

I'm sure you know what it looks like:D
Lady bugs!! Story: One day in the middle of the summer. I woke up really needing to use the bathroom. So i rush down stairs and as soon as i lift the toliet i see 4 lady bugs!! Not fun! Also when its really hot where i live they stick to the window.
They are harmless but i just don't like the fact that they were in the bathroom!

Also caterpillars! I used to love them until i found out they carry germs!

Answer 10

Anything Slimey
Anything with more than 4 legs
Anything that flies and is not considered a bird

I especially dislike Grasshoppers
