Pish, ladybugs. Not even a true bug. They only look cute so they can let you know that they're toxic. And if you try to bother them they'll start bleeding from the knees. They're lucky most of their food is a pest.

Cats are also predators.

I have a super old house that has these in it, along with spiders and other various creepy crawlies (nothing dangerously venomous in the area, save one spider species I’ve never seen, which only produces mild tissue necrosis).

I really don’t mind them -certainly not enough to do anything about them- and the cats like chasing them in the middle of the night, so whatever.

But man, on the rare occurrence I go to the bathroom in the middle of the night and see one in the red light of the nightlight, skittering across the wall with a quickness, scares the bejesus out of me. Every. Damn. Time.

see, jumping spiders understand this. they recognize that we're effectively gods and their lives are entirely in our hands, so they damn well stand still and try to look non-threatening.

This is how I feel when people tell me to look happier. I have punched at least one person in the face for saying said shit.

Yes, I used to use this stuff all the time in my old roach infested apartment. And then I felt really bad for the cockroaches and had to stop though.

Though i agree they are harmless, they do not meet any classical, popular definition of cute

They have too many legs and move too quickly. It just freaks me out, man.

Wayyy too many legs

The reasoned par of my brain wholeheartedly agrees with you, and when I can convince myself to do so, I let them vibe. Unfortunately the reasoned part of my brain is powerless to stop the fight or flight response that happens when [spindly-legged creature] crosses my field of view. It simply happens.

If reasoning alone could overcome an otherwise unreasonable physiological response, then allergies wouldn't exist.

For me it's the fact that I lived in a desertic place for most of my life and centipedes there have a very painful bite

I know house centipedes are smaller and harmless but it's difficult to re-train the brain

Edit: words

Idk they creep me the fuck out with those legs and also they move way too fast.

For me, they manage to trigger the "SNAKE!" and "SPIDER!" panic responses simultaneously. The rational part of my brain likes them, the instinctual part tells me to smash it with a rock

They creep me the fuck out. I know they're harmless and beneficial to have but when I turn on my bathroom light and see one on the wall above my toilet I have to get rid of it. They're literally the only bug that freaks me out, even roaches aren't that bad to me.

Don't joke about that shit bro, last time they got that big they killed my great grandfather.

Have you ever seen starship troopers?

Go to the USA Southern States if you want to see cockroaches. Holy shit, man! The warm weather and humidity are like steroids to them. They get as big as a mouse, and they don't care if you have the cleanest building in the world, they're still going to invade and wake you from your sleep by crawling on your face.

They eat anything that is smaller than they are legs included. They'll eat anything from bed bugs to spiders. I even saw one chewing of a wasp at one point.

I mean...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_cockroach

To be fair, they really originated elsewhere, but Germany certainly has cockroaches. I think Germany is probably too cold for them to be a big problem, though.

There's 100% cockroaches in Germany, there is literally a species of cockroach called "german cockroach"

They eat other insects. All of them, not just roaches.

Fish: Oooh, dragonfly larva, I'll help myself to a nice meal

Dragonfly larva: you are mistaken about who is the meal here
