Most girls would have screamed like satan had grabbed them lol. Instead you made a pet of her 👍👍👍
:) I know this is late... My friends have a running joke that me and my twin (we're not actually but we are the same age and look very similar) Nate should switch roles. Nate is a big diva and hates bugs and the such. I absolutely love them though! I am very much a tom boy LOL I love the creepy crawly things :)

I actually stop and move tarantulas out of the road. My girlfriend used to think I was crazy, now she watches out for them also. I live pretty any animal/insect (except fly and mosquitoes, I hate both of those)

Nothing annoys me more than irrational fear. People that are so terrified of snakes, spiders, whatever for no other reason than they exist. Those are the same people that will walk out into the woods or creeks and kill something just because they see it. Hello you went into his home and killed him for being in his home. Yeah annoys might not be a strong enough word for how I feel about people like that. I mean really, when was the last time a spider, snake, lizard, chipmunk or any thing else barged into a persons home and killed them for being there? I don't kill anything without provocation and even then it's reluctantly.
And if I can simply relocate something to make myself and/or itself safer that's what I'll do every time.

Literally though, it really sucks how people do that. I’ve been guilty of it before and just within the last year I’ve been putting spiders and stuff outside, or if I’m in the middle of getting Larry food, I give insects to him if I’m out of mealworms. Spiders literally are scared of us, and for good reason too!

Yup. Even snakes 🐍
If a rattlesnake bites you and you'll die tomorrow it's doesn't make him feel better that your killing him today.
Other than large predators pretty much all animals will avoid us given the opportunity.

Very true. My philosophy is that every animal deserves a chance. You wouldn't kill a human just because you don't like them or your scared of them. So why kill an animal. God created every creature with a purpose and we need to respect that even if we can't see what that purpose is.

I agree with all of you! Loving and treating all animals and insects with care has always been one of the rules in our family. I remember my grandfather taught me how to properly release an insect outside using an empty matchbox, in the event that an insect gets into the house and cannot get out, even if it is poisonous, you do not know whether it can bite or so as not to harm it. I still use this method to release wasps or bees outside.

I unfortunately cannot properly dispose of wasps, bees, and other stinging type insects of that family. There is a history of allergic reactions to stings that results in anaphylactic shock. I have yet to be stung because I give them the covid rule- 6 feet please.

That's a valid plan 😁
Bees I don't kill ever, they are pollinators. Wasp I'll leave alone as long as they leave me alone.
