The ones that surprise me the most are

Assassin Bugs (I didn't realize they could kill humans, and I guess that's more indirectly by the diseases they carry).

And Scorpions surprise me, just because I haven't heard of many death by Scorpions...

I know it's possible, just haven't heard it happening much, compared to the rest.

I’m surprised mosquitoes are the one thing more deadly to humans than other humans !

@bijouxbroussard Maybe because there are so many of them and we are so accessible to them?

Viper · M

@bijouxbroussard they're probably counting the diseases they carry including malaria... and others

And I'm not sure there was an active war, or maybe they aren't counting wars when this was taken.

strange, I had a pet wheel bug (a type of assassin bug) as a kid, I think either I or my grandmother got bitten by it, but no one died

I did feed it other bugs and eventually it seemed to have a baby inside the jar it was in

I suppose only some assassin bugs in some part of the world possibly kill people if they happen to be spreading a parasite?

Viper · M

@SW-User Yes, I didn't understand why that was on the list and researched it a bit, and seemed to be about spreading diseases and parasites...

I don't know enough about Assassin Bugs to be honest. Maybe that's a good thing...
