bugging me

There are well over 1,000,000 different known species of insects in the world, and some experts estimate that there might be as many as 10,000,000.
That's just species, can you imagine how many individual insects that is?
I can, because about half of them were in my house today.

ok, so maybe a slight exaggeration. There was a lot of the little buggers though.
First, a cloud of fruit flies in the little bin, 2 ants in the kitchen, a moth in the bathroom and one of these, a house centipede


zipping along near the TV, a HUGE black beetle thing and a crane fly
completed my visitors for the day.
I tell ya, there are only so many times a person can try to shoo insects back outside before it's squashing time.
I don't want to think about the bad karma involved in squashing at least 10 of those fruit flies.
