Better a dead mosquito in your shower then the big spider I had a couple of days ago Man, I don't know where they all come from, mosquito's can't get in my house, but big giant black/brown spiders can ![:(](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/sad.png) Well, they may be why you don't have any mosquito in your house, too. ;D Better big spiders than house centipedes. If there's a but that can disgust me, this is one of them... I don't know why. My fellow soldiers! Brothers in arms! Brethren! Do not lay down thy weapons yet! I have been attacked twice this night. Our most gruesome enemies still holds position. Do not think the war is over yet! Pray for winter's coming but always remain vigilant in the meanwhile! Why didn't I take my chemical weapons with me on my student room ![:'(](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/cry.png) Aaaargh! *EDIT: I just made the first kill of the day! ...by hand ![>:(](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/angry.png) Sir, I have captured a Fly Spy by grabbing it out of the air. It would not talk... I disposed of it with the butt of my highlighter of judgement! The mosquitoes themselves have been laying low... Killerzzz

Yeah, I prefer spiders to a lot of other residents too. I usually leave them alone unless they become disgustingly big. ;D I don't think I ever saw one of those house centipedes... That said, what we have plenty is this: Forficula auricularia. ![::)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/eyesroll.png) Apparently they can pinch quite bad. And (effectively) they are disgusting to crush, being very crunchy.

We call them earpiercers in French too.
Hildor, don't worry, they're most likely edible and a good source of proteins. ;D

In my house it's mostly mosquitoes (by the hundreds ![:o](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/shocked.png) ), and cockroaches! There's hardly anything more satisfying than the sound of your shoe/slipper smashing down onto that hapless thing, better smash hard, or they don't die! ![:'(](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/cry.png) @ Hildor: Crunchy creatures! You can shake 'em, you can bake 'em! You can eat 'em right out of the bag! ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png)

I've learned my lesson twice now. I'm never looking up on Chaos anymore while eating ^^ I made another three casualties yesterday. When do they start understanding that it's cold again? You hear me?! COLD!!!

Heh... It looks like those around here decided to take shelter inside the house; it's been 3 now, and I see none when I go out. ![::)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/eyesroll.png)

The most difficult thing of all is fending off mosquito's in your sleep while you had a few beers. I'm afraid I'll have to outlaw alcohol for all our troops... ![:(](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/sad.png)

"Crunchy Creatures?" ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png) (or should that be spelled "Krunchy Kreatures") ;D @ Killerzzz: Yep, in English we call those nasty bugs "Earwigs" (what the French call "Earpiercers" and the Dutch call "Earpinchers") ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) Adam's apple eh? Ack, those are nasty... ![:'(](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/cry.png) @ Hildor: You can be sure that if Peter were involved in the war, he'd be the first to disregard the outlawing of alcohol! ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png)

Is it safe to come out? Haven't seen any mosquito activity in some time now. Though I still have the bumps from that dang rash... they don't itch on their own, but if I accidentally scratch them... UGGGGG, that's a month and a half now, HOW LOONG! ![:'(](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/cry.png) Ugck... sarge... ah caynt feel mah legs, sarge...

If you didn't scratch them before; then it burns them. It doesn't itch anymore, but it's not more comfortable. ;D
