I salute you for not kiling them. Especially with the collapse of the biosphere tanking bug populations, every bug life is precious and we should be doing what we can to keep their populations going.
I think bugs are generally cute little friends and we should never deliberately harm them unless they're trying to drink our blood. Sometimes they wander into our houses and need help finding their way back outside.
Seriously, if you can take the time to look at them close up or watch macro videos of them they have so much adorableness to offer. The way they preen their little antennae is so cute. And rub their forelimbs together. And their eyes and faces are just instant oxytocin.
They're like little fairies. They aren't our enemies, they're fellow living beings but they're not capable of being evil the way fascists are. Love the bugs. Protect the bugs. Respect the bugs.
They are such cute friends!!!
I have a wild harvester ant colony I’ll gift wild plants too. Seeing these relatively giant ants grab chunks of seeds off plants is just so amazing.
That's sweet!
