I hate cockroaches! They look so disgusting with their hairy legs. Other insects don't bug me though (excuse the pun).

Spiders...
and or... wasps/bees.
I'm allergic to them all (all bug bites) I get massive welts just from mosquitos.
Wasps and Bees... I swell badly and theres a lot of pain.
And spider bites I swell and get very sick.

Rrrr, every single one of them. I'm a self-proclaimed entomophobic guy.

I dislike bugs in general. I really hate moths and cockroaches, though. Mostly because they seem to be everywhere around here. >.<

I'm scared of getting stung by bees. Besides that though, bugs don't scare me. Just really annoy me.
The most annoying is the gnat in my opinion. We've got millions of them where I live, and they seem to serve no purpose other than to annoy as much as possible. They're too small to bother with swatting, bug sprays don't seem to help since there are so many of them, and they get into everything. Then if we have people over, they seem to make a habit of not shutting the screen door, and we get gnats all over in the house.
Sorry, I truly detest gnats.

Spiders! Oh man... spiders. Ugh. My skin crawls just thinking about them.
This is why whoever I date/marry/etc. has to be able to provide protection from spiders and other creepy-crawly bugs.

I hate spiders and cockroaches. X_x
Last year at Biology, we had this lab with these hissing cockroaches where we had to hold them -- it freaked me so much I wouldn't step foot in that room for days after we finished the lab. X_x

I really arn't creeped out by any of them, but I really hate cockroaches. There ther most disgusting thing that just screams to be killed; when we see one we sprqay the whole house top to bottom.

I hate cockroaches. I have since I was little. I don't like it when my dad kills them though, since they are living creatures too. Even if they're really creepy.

Wow, it's so sad (to me, anyway) that you guys don't like creepy-crawlies. It's especially sad that you don't like cockroaches. They're among the most intelligent insects -- that is to say, they can find food in a maze faster than most and remember it, rather than learning the names of squeaky toys -- and they actually make pretty good pets for insects.
I'm a big fan of tarantulas, but unfortunately I always seem to get on the wrong end of their hairs - most of 'em have irritating hairs. If a bird eats one, it learns real quick that those spiders make 'em sick, so they don't eat any more. And the hairs are rough on people, too - they come out when the spider's scared, just like a dog's. So don't scare a tarantula while holding it.
The only bugs that scare me are the ones that surprise me - I squeak like a little girl when I'm surprised, which my girlfriend finds incredibly funny - but if I can expect it, then I think they're pretty cool.

I actually like insects, except roaches mainly, for them its insta-death. Roaches wouldn't bother me either if they stayed outsoors, but having them in my house is another story. But I did hold hissing cockroach once at the zoo, it was pretty cool. I was little and I remember I was one of the only kids who would hold it.
