Did you play with insects when you were a kid? Which was your favorite?

Mine were grasshoppers and rollie pollies. Though the big flying grasshoppers scared me and made me cry...lol
caterpillars I loved those I kept them in boxes with lots of leaves and spinkled water on the leaves...
@cherokeepatti Not any like those in the UK that I'm aware of . The ones I collected were either green or black and yellow slightly hairy

@Cutiepi23 I didn't realize that they were here till I heard it on local news and some child had gotten blistered playing with one. I had read it a couple months before. Now I look at all fuzzy caterpillars with suspicion regardless.
@cherokeepatti 😨 oh no!!

I never played with bugs of any kind, I just killed them at will. I'm pretty sure if there is a Hell that will be mine, tons of bugs and I can't kill them.

@littlepinklotus I didn't see walking sticks until I was an adult. Praying Manthises are cool, too.

Grasshoppers and ladybugs, rolly-pollies too.

@Cutiepi23 They also call them pill bugs, they roll up into little balls, they like damp places and if they get in the house they'll find the bathroom.
@cherokeepatti lol they look strange thanks for the photo. ☺

@Cutiepi23 They say that they are actually miniature crustaceans and not true insects. I know chihuahas like to eat them...they'll sniff them out and snack on them.

Yes. Ants, ladybugs, firefires, and caterpillars.
I would put then in a jar.

no. I actually was a decent person and had respect for animals.

@unknownpoetx well I didn't say torture them...do you not play with cats and dogs?
unknownpoetx · 36-40, M
