The only animal I think is truly worth eradicating is the bedbug.

Every other insect from the mosquito, to the tick is an incredibly important source of food (especially protein) for other animals, especially in places with very harsh conditions where other insects struggle to survive. I used to hate and fear insects but now I know they all have their place.

All, except the bedbug. These things are specifically designed to hunt us and pretty much only us. They have precious few predators, much less predators that rely on their existence. They deserve obliteration.

Mosquitos. Dad died from a bite, got West Nile virus as a result of it. I’d give anything to have him back.

Mosquitoes. If I'm allowed, midges too.

Sorry that's fucking gross. OP wants to walk through a world of rotting meat and unscavenged carcasses. Seriously. Read up on what happened to vultures in India when they gave all their cattle Diclofenac.

Cultures might not be pretty but they are fucking awesome and entirely necessary. Why peeps gotta hate on the cleaning staff I don't know.

Ticks. Fuck those.

Ticks.

Humans. We destroy everything.

Humans.

What is worrying about a buzzard? Are you a small rodent?

Oh no, vultures are great.

For me—probably ticks.

Don't want to get rid of a good scavenger like the buzzard. They really help the ecosystem. Particularly with population and disease control.

Mosquito

humans

Ticks. One of the most dangerous animals in the world.

Humans or at the very least Epstillians

Fuck ticks.

I love vultures so much! Nature's garbage crew.

I will have to go with palmetto bugs, sorry guys you freak me out so bad and I think there are other bugs that turn leaves into dirt without being nightmare fuel.

Carrion birds are extremely important to our ecosystems.

Edit: apparently "buzzard" in the US usually refers to vultures, which is what I was thinking of.

Bigfoot, of course. This reign of terror must come to an end.

Possums, in NZ.

Here they are a scourge. They're introduced and outcompete or prey on native birds.

Wait.. Buzzard as in buteo buteo? What did they do to you?

tapeworms and parasitic roundworms as a category

I wonder what the world would be like without humans?

My go is for the Buzzard, it would sure as hell make desert trips and heat waves seem a lot less worrying and paranoiac.

I'm not sure I understand that one. What's the connection between buzzards and heat waves? Why do they make you worry? We have a ton of them in Germany, pretty cool birds and not dangerous unless you're a mouse.

I guess if I had to pick one, it would be ticks. But I'd rather not remove any, because whatever animal you remove may have devastating consequences on the entire ecosystem.

Humans and I'm not joking maybe Neanderthals would have coexisted with the planet better and we would not be going through the 6th Anthropocene mass extinction event.

Ugh. Easy. The St Barnabus Mite (they call them Wringlers in the US, I think). Hate, hate, hate them. Nasty, relentless, ethereal, bitey little shitlords, and they're so resilient they turn up everywhere. They can fuck right off.

Edit: Holy shit, it worked!

Ourselves.

Why wish? It happens every day.

Screw worm and mosquito

Emus. Stupid flightless birds.

def humans we suck

Fleas.
