Kill 'em all.

I tend to laugh maniacally when I kill them, especially ants "EAT MY MIGHT SPRAY OF DEATH FROM ABOVE YOU FILTHY COOKIE DEFILERS! MUHAHAHAHAHAHA"

Spiders I don't kill, but sometimes confine them to a small space with a Wasp to see who'll be the victor.

Heh, I do the same thing too, especially with helpless wee woodlice! I don't mind spiders, they spend most of their time staying still anyways. Though lately at work I've had 3 different spider encounters where they're dangling off a web on my hair, freaks me right the fúck out!!!

However, if I see a fly or a wasp I whip out my revolver on the spot and kill the bastards. Filthy cúnts are always trying to kill me!!

EDIT: I hate these guys

No, never.
I have no problem killing something(an insect or a human), I just think it is needless and wrong, so I kill neither if I can help it. However, If somebody has no mercy on something small and helpless, then I feel no need to exhibit mercy for them.
I have no problem killing anything in self defense.

I used to have an opinion of 'live and let live' but i fell asleep on the couch the other nite and woke to some massive fecking house spider crawling up my arm. Since then it's an all out war on any arachnoid in my household. They started it, i'm finishing it!

I'll only kill something if its really annoying me, such as a bluebottle fly in my room when I'm trying to sleep. Otherwise I'll just pick up the offender and move it out of the way or open a window for it to get out.

I just like to boil some water, and throw snails in and watch them cry..yes cry snail....cry.

I'm like a school yard bully, I will only harm what cannot hurt me.

Mosquitos only, everything else lives. Bees and wasps get rehoused using a pint glass.

Nothing like getting into bed, just about to nod off, to hear that little 'iiiiiiiiiii' as the winged ****er is hovering towards your ear, neck, etc, to have a good peck at ya..

I kill 'em all bar bees and spiders.

Bees as they are workers, don't harm us unless provoked and are essential part of the food growing chain.
Spiders kill those ba$tard flies who kill\infect us with their germs, spread disease hence they are good guys and tolerated.

I enjoy killing the scumbag of the insect world..the Wasp, must of killed about 1000 in my lifetime manually, thats just the count without using a super killing spray!

Death to all insects that dare to land on my laptop screen at night.

Years ago when I was in college, there was some sort of insect flying over the light projecting bit of the overhead projector in class and was clearly visible on the screen. Eventually one of the mature students got fed up of this and got up out of her chair and squished it onto the glass, making everyone in the place go "Urrrrggghh"

Man, you realise that the Garda monitoring this site has big 8*10 pictures of you on the wall of an office somewhere. Leaving your house, leaving work, drowning kittens etc...

Unsettling. I put snails in hot water too, but for eating, not torturing. Although some would argue it's much the same.

I used to spend summers putting on torch-on felt roofs and wasps routinely nest in old roofs so I've had many a battle with them. Frying them with the torch is great craic. They come at ya, a wave of the flame, and they turn black and drop outta the sky.

Im jealous of their ability to fly, and how they rub it in my face

so I go out of my way to destroy them completely, both emotionally and with fire

If an insect can fly and is crawling up a window I generally let it out but if they're flying around the room they will be smushed. Spiders (we get those big ass ones all year round) don't have a hope in my house so because my mam's an aracnaphobe so they have to be killed. I take no pleasure in killing insects but it has to be done at certain times.

Siogfinsceal

yes, I f**king hate insects so anything that comes near me gets squashed. Why is it when ever you kill a spider some muppet pipes up' dont kill him they are supposed to be lucky'...well he is now dead on the end of my shoe so he aint that lucky!

Moths die.
Daddy Long-legs die.
Spiders live, though sometimes relocated.
Snails live, if they survive the landing.
Wasps are given their chance for freedom, but usually refuse to go out the window. So they die.
Ladybirds : who could kill those cute little things?
Earwigs die.
Cockroaches die.
Woodlice die.

Feck, I really need to tidy my room.....

I feel bad if I kill anything, so I try not to, but exceptions are made on occassion.

I really like bugs of all sorts but i do belive that in self defece eg vs hostile wasps, ant colonies etc it may be necessary for safety to kill them.

for kicks no.
