Be afraid, be very afraid 😱😱😱

This 22inch rat doesn’t look too good either ! 🐀

omg!!!! I am terrified of insects especially gruesome looking ones. YIKES!

“We”, thanks to son, had the school stick insect one summer holiday. It managed to escape a couple of times and was found loitering on the hallway wall then on the side of the fridge, looking “menacing” in the glow of the fridge light when I went in it get some milk out.
We picked privet for it and other bits of suitable stuff but I later on realised that for a couple of weeks I had in fact been feeding an actual stick🤨 absolutely no idea what happened to it.

Ha ha!

Oh dear, the look of that insect is enough to give me nightmares. Am scared of quite a few insects, spiders, beetles, daddy long legs, dragon flies, big moths, cicadas, etc.
If I saw that stick insect in my house I would have to leave the house until someone caught it and took it away.

Never was afraid of spiders until one bit my finger twice. I was on the way to put it out of the door. Wasn't too bad but felt like a wasp sting, went red and all better in a few days.
However OH has 2 very large red patches on the back of his leg. Had antibiotics and antihistamines tablets and ointment
GP says its false widow spider bites and will take a good 3 weeks to heal. He didn't feel it bite him though. It's painful and itchy now 10 days later

Notspaghetti - she ate him.

There is nothing like making ameal of a male spider. l bet they are vety, muscular fit and juicy with all that web building.

Plus, you get plenty of legs for extra cold snacks.

I bet she had at least half a dozen fresh flies for starters

Is this really the sort of nonsence they're posting on here now,? Having been offline for quite a bit i'm a bit under-awed.🤔🙄

Sorry you are soooooo underwhelmed, Einstein.

Really Nannan2 can't you see it's
just a light hearted bit of fun?
In real life conversation turns to trivia from time to time.
Life can't always be about the heavy stuff.

This is another reason I wouldn't go to Australia! Giant stick insects, deadly spiders in the loo and a constant diet of barbecues and Fosters lager
