There is a bee in my living room.

So my kids and I are hiding upstairs until H gets home. Why am I such a wiener?!

Honey bee or a yellow jacket?

Time to whip out the vacuum cleaner!

I usually vacuum up the wasps in my attic because I am terrified I won't kill them when I try to squish them and they will attack my son the cats or me!

[diapersnwipes]

Just don't use bee and wasp spray inside.

H caught it with a fly swatter. Phew!

Wait, how long would you have camped out upstairs for? I don't get just not killing them - flyswatter, vacuum, shoes, whatever. Barring allergies, of course.

Rodents gross me out more for sure. I just never understood why someone wouldn't just kill a bug and move on, though. I wouldn't say I'm afraid of them, not that I like them either.

[leselia]

I'd move.

Spiders and bugs I'll just kill and move on. They don't bother me. The flying, stinging things freak me out. I'm allergic though. Fun story - I was in a parking lot getting L and A out of the car. A bee got in and was crawling on A's carseat. I had no clue what to do. A was still in the seat. I ended up unbuckling A very slowly, grabbed him and swatted the bee, ran and probably screamed a little. Not one of my finest moments. Ha. Some dude in the parking lot laughed at me.
