So this huge, I mean really HUGE bumble bee has been chasing DS & I,
We go out to the garage for something & then he comes after us.
This morning, the garage closed I went out for something.
Saw this *thing* on the ground, thinking it was dying.
It was since we get our house sprayed quarterly.
Anyway, being as kind as I am .. spray him to put him out of his misery.
He comes after me ::gasp:: Scared me to death!  It was that HUGE BB!
Ran in the house & was shaking like a leaf ..
He is dead & gone now but we wonder if we'll see any of his relatives

So .. are you afraid of any kinds of bugs?
If so, what kinds? 
What do you do if you see one?  Run or hold still?

Just wondering :)

Yes exactly like a B52 bomber, LOL

Now that is scary Bunny,
Can imagine what you looked liked doing it all though.
Do the same when it comes to bees around me ::blush::
Stare at the ground, yes indeed & wear sandals outside too I bet :)

i'm not afraid of bugs just find them disgusting.i have been stung by yellow jackets- got surprised one summer when i was weeding the flower bed-they had a ground nest and i found it.only 2 stings on my hand but it sure did burn for a couple days.i never got stung by the bumble bees in the vege garden. they were more interested in the blossoms nectar. flies and ants are disgusting and germy. spiders are creepy.

ladybugs and inchworms are cute-catepillars are nice because they turn into beautiful butterflies.
