    My dad tried to kill it. I stopped him, caught the bug and threw it outside.

    Was I just being wierd?

    I do that all the time, depending on the bug.

    If its a wasp or something that can potential cause me harm... I kill it. If its an ant or a spider, I capture it and let it out the back door.

    I saw a roach in the shower and I bruised myself up running from it and slipping on the bathroom floor. I'm man enough to admit this on the internet behind a false persona.

    My mom lets out bugs. I remember her getting a mouse to trust her enough for her to release it. Must be some buddhist mind trick...

    I get chills from the crunch of killing a roach. I dunno if it's because I've taken a life or because it's icky. But in the scheme of things, letting a roach live spells disaster for your home, so it's gotta go.

    Obviously you don't live in Houston. These things are like The Predator. AND SOME OF THEM FLY.

    If it doesn't hurt me, I won't hurt it.

    Besides we don't get nasty red ants like yall get down there.

    Nut up and squish them, cleaning up afterwards is not a big chore. Flying? Bat down to floor then finish off. Like what was said before, letting roaches live isn't a good thing for the crib.

    Just read that roach allergens worsens asthma symptoms more then other types of allergens.

    I pick them up and add them to the multi-insect cage where I have weekly competitions to see who's got what it takes. Then, they get to vote and select one of the insects to be kicked off the island.
