What are some insects/qualities that insects have that truly bother you? Not something as simple as "this bug looks scary" but things that are truly scary about said bug.

For example:

Japanese hornet venom can melt skin
Cicadas pupate for 17 years then hatch all at once in swarms
Humans created Africanized honey bees/killer bees

I once watched ants drag away a baby mouse. Thing went squeaking it's ass off all the way.

bullet ant, 'nuff said, if youv'e ever been bit by one, you know

>>767887534
Are you implying that you've been bitten by a bullet ant?

Parasitic wasps that lay their eggs in other bugs. Shit's fucked up.

>>767887015
>Cicadas pupate for 17 years
whatthe fuck vro
>>
>>767887015
The fact that they are all autonomous. Everything they do has 0 thought or even recognition that there are actions being performed.
>>
>>767889240
And after 17 years, they live for one season, then die. The males mate, then die. The females mate, lay eggs, then die.
>>
>>767889489
but they leave behind those great husks stuck to the bark of trees that you can pick off after it dries out (have to wait until they aren't soggy anymore or they'll rip) and then you can put them in girls' hair and scare them
>>
>>767887015
Anything that crawls inside if you. Fuck that shit
>>
>>767888768
I didn't even know that and I used to throw rocks at their nests when I was a kid.

Why not both?

>>767890905
Millipedes have more.
>>
>>767891343
Millipedes are cute tho, in a weird sort of way. They're just little armored toothpaste tubes with legs. Centipedes on the other hand are elongated stingerless scorpions.

Botfly
Easily the most indescribable uneasiness comes from the fact that they burrow into you as larvae and become a smart "wart" the develop as parasite and sprout out of your very skin. Have fun itching for hours on end after a few YouTube videos
>>
>>767887699
If you want some reasons insects bother people here are a few:
Extreme body horror of an animal burrowing inside you, possibly erupting back out or hollowing you out
Giant colonies acting in unison like ants
No recognizable face
Ability to change from idiot forager grub to highly specialized killing machine through metamorphosis
Poisonous
Incredible strength
Lack of emotion and compassion
High rates of reproduction
Acting like a living plague a la locusts
Parasitism/parasitoidism
>>
>>767891343
not that anon but centipedes are the scariest fuckers on this planet, they look awful have brutal fucking sting/bite and can hunt fucking rodents and small animals. They will hide in your fucking boots and strike when youre most vulnerable. They are the bane of every well-intentioned species on earth.
>>
I don't like the idea that there are insects out there that could potentially eat your skin, not that long ago I saw a video on here of a woman's nipple getting eaten by a praying mantis. Just imagine what a larger but similar bug could do to you, you could end up having all the flesh from your fingers missing or a hole in your stomach.
>>
>>767887699
the fact that their so primal, they're like machines, they don't react like mammals do. They move awkwardly and unpredictably.
>>
>>767891343
millipede legs dont extend out

Ever have a hornet fly in your face? Come at you full speed with the intention to kill. Even the strongest most emotionless man would act like a little girl. The power that holds is special.
