Hehe. Good stuff, Jason. It's fascinating. I used to be the same. Every time an insect or spider came near, you'd swat it away or kill it. I think partly because you don't know what's going to sting or harm you, and what is just going about its business and will leave you alone. As you learn more and more about them, you become more comfortable with them.
Example. Bees and wasps. I think most people think if they fly at you they want to sting or attack. Learn their behaviour. They're not very good when the weather turns cold. Find a bee or wasp in really cold weather, move your hand close to it, it will sense the heat from you and crawl on your hand to warm up and fly away. I scooped a wasp out of our pool in winter, let it dry and warm up on my hand before it was right and flew away.
Leaves you feeling all warm and fuzzy inside.
