I like ladybugs. I hate all other members of phylum arthropoda, including the friendly-but-still-horrifying house centipede.
4. Scutigera Coleoptrata Will Not Forget This
Unlike a lot of household pests that can be expected to die shortly after breeding, s. coleoptrata can live as long as seven years. There’s a distinct possibility they’ve been in your house longer than you have. During that time, they can grow to be as big as 1.75 in. long. Unsurprisingly, getting rid of them isn’t easy. Sticky traps are often recommended, but the house centipede can escape those by simply breaking off the stuck legs and growing them back later.

Anyway, if you haven’t noticed, here is another picture of a house centipede~
Oh! Look at the little guy! He’s—disgusting. Like all bugs. Except one.
