What insect do you wish humans could eradicate?

Ladybirds.

 

Wasps, they fly they sting and fly away ..... laughing
(whilst I'm aware they do assist in the pollination of plant/flowers - the counterpart Bee, serves a similar purpose and is more considerate)

 

My fear would be that whatever we eradicate, something worse would come along to replace it and we may have no immunity to it's bite.

 

we're humans, thinking ahead isn't exactly our forte. we just want to eradicate whatever is annoying us NOW!

 

I could live without mosquitos

Or maybe bed bugs. I've never came across a bed bug but I do live in fear of bringing one home with me from a hotel or airbnb

 

Yah they are pretty nasty, the most fucked up thing is they usually "hide" during the day, so it's difficult to know the extent of them.


Cockroaches are kind of freaky...

I recommend Diatomaceous Earth for them and really any insect with an exoskeleton. The sprays are fairly ineffective on roaches but the DE is this abrasive powder stuff that's safe for mammals, so dogs and cats could potentially eat it without problems. When the DE gets on roaches, it sticks to them and the abrasive aspects cuts into their body and drains all their fluids, dehydrating them and slowly killing them over a few hours.

 

Fleas.

 

gnat..

 

religious bugs

 

I'll see your gnat and raise you a tsetse fly!

 

Tsetsee Fly (the surefire cure for insomnia) ..lol...

I think most people in Africa would choose the mosquito since they spread everything from encephalitis, to West Nile Virus, Dengue Fever, Malaria, Yellow fever, …etc.

 

I dunno, maybe the common fly. I mean I won't like spiders either, but they eat a lot of other bugs I don't care for. The common fly however, I see no purpose to its existence except for being attracted to my body heat. I suppose they breed maggots to eat dead animals but you know what?? I'm not a dead animals.

 

If it wouldn't have a negative effect on the world, I'd say mosquitoes. I hate them, but they really love me. I spent a few days going out a lot after it rained and the mosquitoes ate me up. I have like six bites on each leg and a couple on my arms.

 

Yeah, they make life pretty miserable
