*shudder* I hate earwigs

GBCK

I can handle bugs...except earwigs.
ANd...it's summer, they like warm and damp...so....  We have 'em.  They're in my roses.  They're in my house.  THe cats won't kill them.  (and no, they don't creep into ears like I was told as a kid but that doesn't make them OK).

So last night, I"m getting out of the shower, grab my towel and the Mr, who is brushing his teeth goes *mmmph*.  I pause, he grabs my towel and, with the sonicare still buzzing in his mouth, runs out of the bathroom.

He comes back, turns off the toothbrush, and says I don't want to know, but I should thank him.
Yeah...I had to know...he saw earwigs in the folds and was rescuing me before I saw them.

Good man. :-)
(although he won't do that for spiders.  His spider phobia puts my earwig phobia to shame)

DH is the same way with earwigs.  They don't bother me, but wasps, on the other hand...::shudder::

My cat won't kill them either. She chases and eats every other type of bug (even ants, which I heard somewhere that cats don't usually chase/eat).
