Arthropods
Most people will just say spiders, but I am also unnerved by various scorpions, centipedes, mantids, beetles and Beatles.

The other one is needles, but it depends what they're doing: I'm fine with _{hot meaty} injections, but when they put needles in to take stuff out of me, I get strangely freaked out.

centipedes uuggggghhhhhh

Some of the smaller species I'm alright with - particularly the ones that just look like bronze millipedes
Scutigera, on the other hand, I take quite some issue with.

Yeah
I was put off sleeping on the floor when I realised that it is where tiny spiders occasionally roam

Do you have any idea how many bed bugs there are in your bed?
In old feather pillows, something like 40% of the entire weight of the pillow can be bed bug feaces

ARGH! KILL IT! KILL IT WITH FIRE!
Actually, what type of spider is that? Despite its terrifying appearance, it looks interesting. From a distance.

Bed spider is watching you masturbate

Jumping spider?
That one isn't too troubling - its mandibles seem a much more sensible size.

God knows what the other one is...just did some googling

Anything with more than 4 legs = bad

I caught a couple of giant millepedes when i was in africa
they were really rather sweet!

Insects are fascinating as long as they aren't in my mouth/bed/pants

sweet? they tell you you had nice shoes?

( Lisette von Falcon, Tue 22 Mar 2011, 15:54, Reply)

No, they get all scared and curl up in a nice neat little ball
Also their feet tickle

Millipedes are fine
They just look like really long woodlice and I'm fine with that. Centipedes are upsetting for some reason.

(Edit: Also, neither of them are actually insects - they are myriapods, which I think is an awesome name.)
(LongJohnBaldry, Tue 22 Mar 2011, 15:58, Reply)

Fair enough, for the sake of argument they can be lumped together today
I love woodlice, best of all the lice
( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Tue 22 Mar 2011, 16:01, Reply)

Ah, well woodlice are crustaceans
So probably more closely related to crabs than millipedes or insects.

("Arthropods" will cover all the creatures listed thus far, I think.)

In that case i love arthropods
Funnily enough I had a pet crab on a holiday to Devon when I was little which i called Arthur
