spiders to insects are as whales to fish.

My question reads "insects"

I do, I say Hello red legs to the orbweavers in my garden, I love watching them spin their webs in the evening and even as they are spinning they have to stop to catch the bugs that fly into them. But I dont say hello to the insects that they are harvesting....

Mostly, in one way or another, however if it's grasshopper I'll greet it with a scream, and if it's a mozzie, I'll greet it with a slap. Otherwise I'm quite fond of the little critters. I keep relocating big golden orb spiders in my garden because their webs are in places that are dangerous to me and to them, but I never hurt them. They eat the Mozzies!.
My best friend adores spiders and she names them all Emily!
A lot of insects are extraordinarily beautiful too.

As vitally important as they are in the food chain I have never greeted an insect. Point well taken however I probably never will.

:) guilty
although generally not with as much affection as with a cat or dog
often the greeting comes with a warning

Yes. They are essential to nature so I respect them much as animals unless they are dangerous and pose a hazard. Other than that, it's "Hi, Spider, you're so cute." Or "Hi Lady Bug, how's your day,thanks for the good luck." Or "Hey cricket stop being so loud outside my window I can't sleep,thanks for the good luck".=^+^=

:) Definitely. I love insects and dont understand how people kill them on purpose. They're fun to watch!! Specially ants.
Mosquitos, flies and cockies however are dangerous to our health so i dont see them bad to kill.

Sometimes.
Spiders especially: 'Well hello there! Nice Web!'
