The one animal I would eradicate from the planet...

Wasps: the a-holes of the insect world.

Absolutely! Especially those really aggressive red ones!

BTW Just to reiterate.. domesticated cats are the absolute most harmful non-native, invasive predator species...

The barn cats AKA feral cats around here help to keep the field mice at bay. When there gets to be to many, they make for good target practice - I hope I did offend any bleeding heart animal rights activists.

I just stepped on a dead wasp that I must have drug in on my shoe and got caught on my indoor floormat. I’m here to say that the onion juice does actually work. The pain is not all gone but it’s not increasing anymore and the swelling is subsiding.

Thanks to the poster who mentioned this solution I was just going to tough it out but this is much better with the onion juice

Onion juice is good but takes longer to work than diesel. We get stung often by them aggressive red hornets - yes we have cab tractors - usually get hit when we are refilling fuel or moving something we don't want to run over. Just wipe your finger around a bit in the diesel fill cap and smear it on the sting and the pain will be gone in just a few minutes. You might not even swell up. I'm pretty sure it's the diesel and Not the red dye. But who knows these days

Very thought provoking topic!

I routinely tell my wife that I've got this list of things to ask God when I see him. Usually, these items include different critters. Questions like: why did you create Chiggers (Red bugs)? Why did you create Ticks? Why did you create (add your favorite critter)?

Read the book of Job, and you can have those answers now.

If you keep feral cats around to help with the rodents, you should have them (cats) spayed or neutered. Lots of low income programs available to those who can't afford it. Hard to believe, but God gave us a brain which sometimes I know we don't use.

Now, if you use cats to keep the rodents at bay but aren't smart enough to spay or neuter those cats who are doing you a service (being that your the smarter animal ), and you then use those same cats for target practice because you use them to your advantage but don't care what you do when they become a problem, when I see the big man, I'd have to ask Him if he would have been offended if someone made you target practice

Then there's these idjits; Tarantulas, python found in Auburn apartment

I'll hold my own opinions of people who want this type of pet in the first place, it's their privilege to do what they want as long as it doesn't interfere with anybody else.
It takes a special kind of scum though to abandon an animal and make it somebody else's problem.

Almost all evil man commits against other men started by cruelty toward animals. Using any animal for target practice qualifies.

I have never hunted..no desire to kill a defenseless animal. If I want to eat,... I can go to the store. The creatures that I have no use for are ticks and mosquitos, I don't believe they serve any useful purpose at all. The only way I could willingly shoot anything is if it threatened user our dogs.

I'm no bleeding heart anything... but to shoot any animal for target practice is below sub human and disgusting; to say it with pride is revolting. And if I get banned or a vacation for saying it... so be it.
