I hate them because they are super annoying. I want to squeeze them into nothing but bug residue. Same goes for reptiles. If I see a snake before that sorry no goof snake sees me it’s dead and fresh out of a head.

Most bugs are ugly and quite a few bite. I dislike spiders and if they are in the house, it's all over for them. Outside, they are eating other things that bug me. My wife insists on me spraying the home inside and out with persistent surface spray. It works pretty well. Snakes? Oddly enough, we see very few here. Australia is a big place and there are other places where snakes are common. They are also protected, so people tend to get a professional snake handler to deal with them. Bugs and snakes are nowhere near as dangerous as humans and horses. If we treated cars the way we see spiders, no one would drive.

Reptiles and spiders help reduce the number of bugs. Snakes help reduce rodents.

I don't hate bugs , don't like them in my house , I catch them and put them outside . All of God's creatures r beautiful and He loves them all I'm sure . I can't kill anything , life is precious , God grants it and I'm not interfering with the Will of God . I have killed severely injured animals in the past and would do so again if I had to . I would also kill an animal to preserve my life or someone else's but would b sad to do it . As a child I was brought up on wildlife documentaries , David Attenborough and such like , maybe that's got something to do with how I feel about nature now . I would also kill an animal to eat it if I had to but I cannot at all understand people who kill things just for the sake of killing , it boggles my mind .

I only dislike gnats, mosquitos, flies, roaches, and venomous spiders. All of these get exterminated in the home. Outside the home, I typically only kill mosquitos.

Nonpests like no nonvenomous spiders, centipedes, etc in the home we typically catch and relocate outside. Although my wife does keep a few jumping spiders in the home to catch flies 😂.

There’s always a season for getting rid of snakes trying to get acquainted with your home. I make sure to keep the lawn mower in business so those pesky slithering things stay clear of my house.

Bugs are liked or disliked based on their own qualities. Butterflies are liked and come out in the day. Moths are disliked and come out at night.

Spiders are also nocturnal.... sneaky. They are carnivores. People hate them.

Honey bees and bumblebees are gentle and leave you alone. Wasps and yellow jackets are of the devil. Hiding in the ground? Annoying.

Ladybugs are pretty and fine. Stink bugs stink. Fireflies have their own light and leave people alone. Cicadas are dumb and run into you.

Cockroaches are dirty and make people sick. Flies vomit every time they land.

So if they're nocturnal, a carnivore, make people sick, and are dumb people hate them.

Not everyone hates spiders!! Spiders are my favorite creature.
I also like insects. Admittedly, I do find mosquitoes and fleas annoying...but, for the most part, I love insects.
When I was a young child, I was out searching for neat spiders and insects. I never really grew out of this lol.
If a spider finds its way inside, I say, "Welcome buddy, make yourself at home!" I see one hanging out not far from me as I type this. What a blessing.
And reptiles are just too neat to hate. I've never killed a snake or any other reptile.
These critters are beneficial.
