Some of us even kill them for fun. But is that really acceptable? Does their life have any less value than ours?

Yes. It is called insecticide.

For me, if they're not bugging, stinging or biting me, I have no problems with them. I've even been known to "rescue" a few stink-bugs from our tub. But if they get nasty, its curtains for them. And there's no way that I will believe that their lives are of equal value to a human life.

Are you Jack Johnson? Because I love his songs!
If you are, will you sing me a little tune?
In some cultures, many believe we reincarnate as a bug. So if you are good in your 1st life then you might comeback as a butterfly but if you are bad and don't pay your taxes they you might come back as a wasp. Ew.

When I was a very young boy my uncle saw me putting red and black ants into a jam jar and watch them fight. He asked me if I'd like it if someone did that to me, never deliberately hurt anything since, except for some bullies I've encountered. As for my uncle, he'd kill anything, never could figure out why he said that.

Everything you eat(with the exception of water, salt & a few minerals) comes at the expense of another living thing. Hence perhaps we are all murderers by nessesity.

technically i guess. they only live for a few days though...
ed: they've been on earth longer as a species than us and will probably be here after humans are gone, so i say they have the advantage on us either way.

Does washing your hands make you a murderer? Think of all the bacteria you kill.
Insects doesn't think, they act.
Animals think, if you murder them, then you're a murderer. But is it always wrong to be one?

how about the chicken you ate in KFC?
and the steak in the restaurant?
Mosquito and fly is a most common murdered case
because they are a parasite to us
so by reducing them is neccesarry
