Not all insects are disgusting or repulsive take monarch butterflies
Did you know? The aztecs worshiped the monarchs believing their migration to Mexico every fall was the spirts of their ancestors returning from the dead to be with their living realitives again? This belief was later partially integrated into the dia day los muteros or day of the dead festival aka Mexican Halloween

The one bug that I'll always disagree on are hummingbird moths.
These fuckers are huge where I live. I like spiders and bees and things, but not these guys. Get out the tennis racket.

What's the plane to Europe like?
Heh, Envirnnmmental Defecne Fund jisut sent me that exact same image.
If any bug gets near me? Cook 'em and eat 'em.
Saw a giant cricket a couple of times.

Anyone else raise bugs? I keep roaches and arachnids. I've had centipedes and millipedes in the past and would like to get more in the future.

I don't really have any pictures or videos to add, just personal experience. I used to be deathly afraid of most forms of bugs, but as of the past half decade, I've become increasingly okay with all sorts of bugs, even house centipedes. All animals have a purpose, and I only really kill the ones that try to drink my blood or eat my food. I've gotten to the point where I handle spiders and put them in places where they're out of harm's way.
I'm especially fond of millipedes. They're so harmless and shy and slow moving.

This is one of my bugs. I've had a lot of trouble with this species but I'm not giving up.

Man, that shit is deeply creepy. On a visceral level.
Usually, I'll just squish spiders and beetles in the house when I see them.
The other day? Had a Jerusalem cricket in the house. Weird fucking bug.
Way too big and juicy for me to confront. Trapped it under a glass and my husband put it outside when he got home.

IIRC ants and wasps are closely related. So same difference really.

Cicadas are cute once you get past their cries. Which is hard since the Diceroprocta apache is one of the loudest cicadas in the world and you can and will have multiple bugs in your yard at a time, sooooo... We leave our porch light on all night, so every summer night we just have cicadas from the yard tree (probably also neighboring trees) camping by the light, and they get fluttering mad every time the door opens. They'll just dive bomb you for it, and the impact hurts lol. And they like dying on our porch, too, and they're so light. They're fat bugs but they weigh like absolutely nothing and they just... crumble.
I didn't take pictures, but we were lucky to see a brood molt in our backyard one summer night this year. It's pretty cool to see these white grub-looking winged bugs just wriggle themselves out of the shell and then climb up the tree to harden in the humidity overnight.

I like slugs, moths, and ladybugs. Those are the three things I will try to relocate outside instead of killing on sight. In general, I like minimalism in the design of creatures; the more blob-like, usually, the more affection I feel for it. But moths, to me, are just furry butterflies and ladybugs have pretty patterns on their wings. I also used to catch lightning bugs to keep in a glass jar by my bed (read: starve to death) as a child.
Also, fuck spiders. I hate your eight eyes and eight legs, die in a fire and I would destroy the whole world to get rid of them.
