Do you kill other creatures intentionally?

I think it's cruel that a small creature that couldn't possibly harm you has to die because you're afraid of it. Maybe next time you can try to remove it instead of kill it. Just get a glass, but it over him, than take a piece of paper and slide it between the glass and the ground (or wherever) and than you can take the spider outside.

... so that it can come back in again the next day and we start all over again?

Well no matter, how crazy and irritated they make me. The most irritating are the cockroaches I get in my room. Sometimes, it is too difficult to remove them. But I have always been successful removing them finally. I just remove them from my room. Yeah, they may return and still if you kill too, they may return. You have garden nearby and there is definite possibility that such bugs come up to your room often. I hope there are dangerous big mosquitoes around your home. Didn't you use the mosquito net. We have mosquitoes here for about 3 seasons and currently, this is the time that we get intense mosquitoes. But still though they bite me, I can't kill it. I can't do it, my heart won't allow me to do that and I feel the unrighteous to do it. They simply have the life like us, I can't tolerate some itching for them... Well yes that some mosquito bite can carry disease with them cyrus. But around here in my place I have heard of none got the disease from mosquito bite yet. I just try not to get bitten from them, but I don't like to kill them. Hey, I hope you should keep the no trespass sign in the language understood by those bugs hehe... Oh yes, there are some insects that stinks too much, just too much when they are squashed. I can't tolerate that smell, it almost makes me vomit. With your thing, I just remember that. Else I had already forgotten about that type of insects. Well its been so many years that I haven't got that insect around here.... And killing them puttting them under water, its just so cruel...STOP DOING IT.... I hope you will reduce such acts in the future...Good luck...Instead of killing them, just remove them from the room and feel the self satisfaction you get for that act... Happy mylotting...

Yes there are many people in this world who don't care about the feeling of other innocent creatures. Just think that they have their life...I am so happy that there also the people who feel like me...Thanks for responding back...happy mylotting...

I am happy that there are people out there that feel the same way about this. That doesn't happen often. Many people don't care about other creatures, I find that horrible. We should be careful with the world around us and all the live that it holds. I am happy there are people like you that do care! Happy mylotting to you too!

Hello maximax8!!! I am very much glad with your response. Because I am also exactly like you. Like you I don't intentionally kill the insects even they bother me a lot. Sometimes there are spider in my room. Currently too, I am near the wall and there is a spider sitting idle a few inches above. It is a flat spider, with a big legs sitting just idle. Well I don't have anything to do with these small spiders. But if the spider is really big , I really have to take care of. I am surprised that you can catch the spider with your hand and just put is outside. I can't touch them with my hands. I am not afraid, but when I touch them my body shivers. The hatest thing is the cockroach. I find these things here and there in my house. The most thing I can't stand is to get them in my room getting here and here. I have worst experience of running it over my face while I was sleeping. Since then I can't sleep unless I clear out these cockroaches. I don't like to touch these cockroaches. And the most irritating ones are the cockroaches that fly here and there aimlessly. They don't really have the eyes and run here and there. What about cockroach in you room? And about mosquito, I just sleep inside the mosquito net. That's all. And also in case of ants and other snail or worm I do the same like you. I try to be as careful as I can to not to step on them. And mostly cockroach again. That's why I keep my eyes on the floor whenever I walk on my home. Thanks for you response...Happy mylotting...

You are smart to use insect repellent, especially before going outside. I didn't know that baby oil would keep sand flies from biting you. I don't have any problems with them, though. Did you know that skin-so-soft bath oil is good insect repellent? I learned this when I sold Avon years ago. It's good to keep flies off of horses. Its' also good to keep fleas off of cats and dogs, too. In fact, it's good for a lot of things. You have to get it from an Avon representative, though. Kathy.

You are absolutely right cobrateacher. This world is not only for us, it is for all the creatures that are in this world. And they have the heart just like us, no matter how small they are. And that's why I do the same thing like you. I can't control them removing from the whole home. The cockroaches are strictly prohibited in my room hehe. For me, I can't catch the cockroach with my hand, and sometime I have to work for about and hour to trap it safe and leave them out of my room. Pretty little insects, they can't understand that meaning of no trespassing in my room hehe... Happy mylotting... Thanks for your response and Keep posting...

Hello srganesh!!! Yes most of the people use mosquito repellants. I use mosquito net that is not killing. We get mosquitoes here only in the summer season. i.e for about 3 months... Well I also can't stand the cockroaches. The most difficult thing is that when they run here and there in my room. But I don't kill them. I clear them out safe from my room and shut the door, Stay out you cockroaches lol ... Thanks for sharing... happy mylotting...

Hello abanerji!!! People are bound to make killings of the insects. But its good to refrain from killing as far as possible, we will get great self satisfaction with ourselves really... Are you vegetarian? Thanks for your response...

Well that is true that it is a basic instinct of every living being. We can't be that great. I don't think I will kill the insects that bit, I will just escape hehe...Luckily I can't see tough insects here and so I don't even need to do that. Sometimes, I can see the honey bee, In that case, I become very careful and make sure they don't bite me. I keep all the windows and out going place such that it will surely escape... Happy mylotting...

Hello CRIVAS!!! You are right, killing other creatures intentionally would be the voilence..What about spiders? You still kill spiders...Can't you stop this habit? I wish you can stop this habit too.... happy mylotting...Thanks for your response...

That is the real problem VANILLAREY!!! But I am always against killing any creatures...Thanks for your response...Happy Mylotting..

Oh dear... am I THAT cruel?

less than cyrus123 hehe...

hehe...You don't need to ask your friends...Ask yourself with your inner mind while killing the other insects intentionally. The better to think it just before killing the insect... And about singing, I am learning day by day and also improving too...I love singing and always be loving...This is the only thing that helps me keep satisfied in life though I am not a professional singer...

Yes it is almost impossible to avoid killing. That's why I mentioned it early that do you kill INTENTIONALLY. Everything is surely about the balance, and so unintentionally too as we go on with our normal tasks, many little things get killed. The world goes on like this only with balance, balance and balance...

Well the cockroaches definitely irritate me. But I can tolerate mosquitoes. Only during the sleeping time, the mosquitoes are hard to tolerate. But I use mosquito net and don't really have the problem. And I can't tolerate the cockroach inside me room. Well I don't kill them, instead remove them from my room... Thanks for your response xannebull, happy mylotting...

Yes tracydee, cockroach is the real problem for me too. Nowadays I find more cockroach in my home, as this is summer season. Its good that we don't have to see these cockroach on the other season. I hate it when the cockroach run here and there when I have dining or having any meal. They just irritate me. But they given that nature by the nature. Cockroach is the creature that always seem to be worried. I think these cockroach don't have eyes, and they sense only through their antennas. The worst thing for me is to get them in my room. I am not scared with it, but it always scare me for a second, when I unintentionally get it near me. The worst has again happened to me. When I was sleeping, a cockroach ran over my face and I was scared. That time I had been using the mosquito net, and I don't how how did it get into the room. And another thing was that there was not just one, but two big cockroach inside the net. I can't touch them with me hand, so that's the problem. I use anything that helps me to get them out of my room. But not killing. It has happened that I had tried for more than half and hour to get the cockroach on my trap and leave them out safe hehe...I think I need good practice to remove them like the people do in national Geographic channels hehe... Love all creatures, they are just so innocent and in more intense problem than us... Happy mylotting...

Yeah, I do the same. Let the wasps or other flies out of the room via window. I have touch time leaving the cockroach out of my room. Because I don't dare to catch them. My whole body will shiver If I hold them in my hand. Instead I have to trap them and let them out. And for mosquitoes protection we have mosquito nets, so I don't have to make the killing. People use here some mosquito coils, but i hate the smell and smoke produced by it. Yes Live and let live... Enjoy...Spread love...happy mylotting...
