Are you suggesting I should feel bad about squishing fruit flies?
- omnicognate 5y agoNo, I squish flies all the time. However, as an empathetic human you should probably feel a bit squeamish about inflicting unnecessary suffering on them.
- catlikesshrimp 5y agoNot if you need to, and your mind feels bad about it to keep the balance. But if you do it for fun, I would keep my distance from you and stay close to a pike.
- dTal 5y agoWhy do you squish fruit flies? They're harmless,
- biofox 5y agoThey lay eggs on my fruit, and in my plant pots... Not cool
- afiori 5y agoIt might be nice not to slowly boil them alive
- robbrown451 5y agoYou should maybe feel bad about how much time you are wasting squishing them, compared to using one of those electric tennis racket bug zappers. They clear a kitchen of fruit flies in minutes, while giving you a most satisfying sound as you send them to the great fruit fly beyond.
- yummypaint 5y agoElectric zappers make insects explode and spray atomized guts all over the space spreading disease
- robbrown451 5y agoThey don't. At least mine doesn't. I've cleaned up the remains, they are intact but with burned sections. I think getting rid of them quickly outweighs germs flying off them. Regardless I don't think they are known for spreading disease.
