Guest guest Posted August 2, 2001 Report Share Posted August 2, 2001 >> Just a question... Do any of you squish or otherwise destroy bugs? I always try to get them outside except ticks. Those I do squish. Laura Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 2, 2001 Report Share Posted August 2, 2001 Man, if you knew what deerflies, horseflies and mosquitoes did to my poor horses, you would be squishing them every chance you got. Besides causing welts the size of quarters all over their bodies, they also carry deadly diseases. So my motto is, save the ants and ladybugs, etc, but destroy the biting insects! JMO!

Guest guest Posted August 2, 2001 Report Share Posted August 2, 2001 HeeHee - I have to admit, I draw the line at mosquitos (will swat them), fleas (they get on my cats) and if I had an infestation of cockroaches, I'd definitely call the Orkin man!

Guest guest Posted August 2, 2001 Report Share Posted August 2, 2001 Did you people give up your sense of humor along with meat? Yes, actually squish your biting kids. Besides I think more of my animals than people anyways. So you are saying that you would perfer to see an animal(horse) with a brain and feelings suffer, instead of killing a mosquito? That's just dumb. No wonder people pick on vegetarians, you give us a bad name. > It's one thing to say that.. it is totally another to say that anything that bites gets squished. > If I can help it I will not kill an insect. I do understand it happens, of course it does. However, I do not understand the statement " So my motto is, save the ants and ladybugs, etc, but destroy the biting insects!

Guest guest Posted August 2, 2001 Report Share Posted August 2, 2001 people bite too! How many times have *I* been bitten by bratty kids? By your motto I should have squished them. Nature is nature is nature. You destroy something that is only doing what comes natural. JMO! So my motto is, save the ants and ladybugs, etc, but destroy the biting insects! JMO!
