We don't have lots of pests here. The cat finished all the wildlife int eh backyard. We just have pidgeons. I hate them. Can't seem to get rid of them. That and lizards, but I don't mind the lizards.
If only the dog showed the same efficiency in killing the ticks that get on him. |

Desert, Northwest America. The sort of place where you find inch-and-a-half-long crickets that sneak into your house through the crack between door and frame. We must've thrown at least seven of the little buggers out of our room last night. |

I get nervous around bees and wasps. Used to with spiders, but I've become less so. |

Actually, I think they're Mormon crickets, which aren't really crickets at all, but a relative of the katydid family.
Apparently, they're also pests.
Wetas look a bit different and are native to New Zealand. It'd be a bit of a trick getting them way up here. |

...But it's just some li'l ol' cricket bugs!
...Make that BIG cricket bugs. They're over an inch long... and they're all over the place!
Innit they cute? When they chirp, they sound just like the cricket from Mulan. |
