For some it is snakes, for some it is rats, some mice. I don’t mind any of these and I used to have pet mice as a child. For me it is
Cockroaches and leeches. Yucky,yucky,things. Not keen on spiders ,either, because some of the here are very poisonous.

Cockroaches.
I used to work in a psychiatric hospital which had once been a Victorian workhouse.
At night, you had to put the ward bathroom light on and wait for a little while before opening the door.
If you went in, in the dark you could hear the cockroaches crunching under your feet. ?

I'm scared of wasps (having stood on a nest as a child) - but that's different to disliking them. I find all creatures fascinating and beautiful in their own way.

So, my 'least favourite creatures'? I strongly agree with Sodapop - some humans are the most disgusting and revolting things to infest our world!

Not really on topic but I ‘rescued’ a large brown beetle from drowning in the pool and it bit me on the hand. Ungrateful wretch!
