The rule of thumb is simply, don't bother it, and it won't bother you. I don't bother killing insects unless there's a possibility it can infect us with something. For example ticks, I show no mercy. If I see one on my property or in my home, it's dead.
There is nothing more pleasurable than swinging hard at a wasp and slapping that piece of shit. I also enjoy it when it doesn't die immediately and has to think about it's life and it's choices.
Hi! I'm not the biggest fan of wasps, but I wouldn't kill them. It's best to get a cup or glass and a piece of paper or cardboard, then release them outside, so they can't sting you, and are out of your way! I understand your disdain for them, but wasps are also valuable pollinators, so please don't kill them!
I feel that way about some spiders ive found in my home. I dont bother them and they dont bother me. Long as they keep it that way they cant have all the bugs they want
I have a pact with the spiders in my house. If I spot them running across the floor or on the ceiling or tucked away in a corner, they're not bothering me, so I won't bother them. If I see one in an inconvenient place like the dinner table or hanging from the ceiling in the middle of the room, I gently relocate them outdoors.
But...if I'm lying in bed trying to go to sleep and I feel one crawling up my arm, it's broken the pact, and it can't be trusted to leave me alone anymore, so it gets a quick and painless death.
the only animal/insect I kill are Cockroaches because they are nasty and ugly and come out of the sewer, but even the roaches I don't like to kill with the shoe. I poison them with spray. Idk why. I do feel sorry for the roach but can't have it walking around my house
Isn't spraying with poison the more cruel way to kill it?
Either it will die during an immediate fight for life or bring the poison to the nest, where all of them slowly die.
