I do no like bugs in any way, shape or form. In fact, I hate them!
A few years ago ladybugs (adorable and harmless to some --- but not to me) moved into the trim around my bathroom window. At least that where I think??? they took up residence. They, evidently, enjoyed their stay enough (those I didn't capture, swat, stomp or flush ... that is) to invite their grandparents, aunt, uncles and cousins. They, basically, took over the solitary bathroom window. The little goobers!I tried squashing them between the frame and tile by pounding my fist on the trim and watching with glee, I might add, when their dead little carcasses dropped to the floor and I swept them up. I also spraying pesticides around the trim both inside and outside the window and watched more of the deceased drop to the floor. They were also promptly put in the trash. I was positive that would be the end of them. Nope, no such luck. Oh sure, they disappeared for a few months but now that warm weather blesses Pennsylvania on rare occasions they're ..... back.
A most colorful flyswatter now resides in the bathroom and when an offensive little ladybug dares makes an appearance I merely scoop it up and deposit it in the toilet. I quit swatting them because cleaning their smelly, staining yellow gunk off the walls is time consuming. Instead, I've made each and every one of these intruders a deal that salvation is theirs IF they can survive the swirling vortex and rushing downpour of water when I hit the toilet handle.
That's fair, right?
ps --- Sorry Carol, no offense intended.
