Oh yeah, ants I don’t fuck around with. They get liquid bait whenever I see one inside. Fruit flies also get traps (red wine in a glass, cover with plastic wrap and poke some holes, add a drop of dish soap to the wine to break surface tension so they fall in and drown)

But harmless insects/arachnids are fine by me. I grew up in an old house in the woods, catching snakes and bugs in brush piles with my cat. It’s sort of what I expect living to be like, honestly.
