Solution to kill all bugs

[tbach24]

I hate bugs more than anything in the world. They bother me to no end. I am very afraid of them and they cause me to lose sleep when they're in my room and I go on 15 escapades to kill them all. Then spend the next 10 minutes in a paranoid fret making sure there are no others.

Here is my solution:

All the sciency people in the world get togehter and create an ultra-awesome pill that doesn't hurt humans, but any bug that bites them, or even comes within 1 foot of them, dies.

Is this feasible?

[steelcmg]

I dont see why we couldnt put some small trace of posion in or bodys to kill the bugs i would think it would have to be a really small amount.

[Blackjack]

Cockroaches are absolutely disgusting. I saw one of them today in my grandmother's house. I ended up stepping on it and it mae this nasty crunching sound. Yuck.

Killing bugs would cause untold damage to the world's ecosystem and would probably cause a mass extinction and the end of a significant amount of human lives.

If I could choose 1 insect to totally eliminate.. it would be the mosquito.

Congratulations, you're sane.

Meh, I could see the argument for blackflies.

[Blackjack]

Or Bees. I [censored] hate getting stung.

So let's collect all the mosquitos, bees and black flies, put them in a rocket ship to the moon, and then blow up the moon.

Clearly a good answer. Maybe Patrick could help build a special bug rocket.

the things that evolution might do to replace them might be more scary to you.

Blowing up the moon would be a bad idea, It would cause our planet to spin uncontrollably. our axis would flip flop to the point where the ice caps would melt and the world would be flooded. Other bad [censored] would happen as well.

and Bees? wtf. I like honey.

This is just a myth. Pure pseudo-science. Besides. At least some of that green cheese would fall back down to earth. Cheese is good.

If you're really losing sleep over bugs, I think you've got bigger issues to fry. And i really don't think coming back to Florida is a good idea for you either.

Clearly. The end of bugs via transport to the moon and destruction of the moon is so +EV that I can't believe that it hasn't been done before.

So here are the plans for anhilation:

I make tons of pills which I will test on Candians/French
Patrick works on the rocket
We kill all the biting insects with the pill
We corral all the others into the rocket
The rocket is launched to the moon
We blow up the moon

NO MORE BUGS

lol, I don't lose that much sleep, it just seems that EVERY night there are these three brown VERY loud bugs that I need to kill. We're OCD about keeping bugs out of our house in FLA.

[jakethebake]

Hmmmmmm.... This is a very good plan. But what about ladybugs? I think we should let the ladybugs stay. They are cute.

Hey Tbach, I heard spraying them with a fire extinguisher works pretty good. /images/graemlins/grin.gif

Fine. But they can't colonize in houses anymore. That's the deal.

[Soul Daddy]

In college, one of the guys in my house had a cockroach crawl into his ear while sleeping. It just stayed in there banging on his ear drum. He had to go to the hospital to get it removed.

I'm just trying to make you lose more sleep, but it's actually true.

I saw this movie once on tv (like 10 years ago) where this guy who was WICKED OCD about keeping everything clean get his apartment infested by bugs (I think cockroaches). It was awful. I am still haunted by it.

Ever read the short story or see the movie Leiningen Versus The Ants (http://mbhs.bergtraum.k12.ny.us/cybereng/shorts/lvta.html)? Those things are badass.

Oh, and I'm working on the rocket. I'll need a flux capacitor, a laz-e-boy, and a case of beer.

So what will this rocket cost us to build, Patrick?

Probably a bit shy of $1B. Better start saving your pennies and hitting all the tip jars you can.

If we all chip in, we can do this. You work on the rocket. I'll work on acquiring some weapons-grade plutonium for our moon-bomb.

edit: tbach, you start rounding up all the bugs.

Oh I like this idea... You're going to be getting ready to launch the moon bomb and the guys you stole the plutonium from are going to gun you down.

Oh, and I'll volunteer to build the bomb, so long as I'm not there at its launch.

These are new to North America. They just spread to Ottawa a couple of summers ago. They look like lady bugs because they're reddish with black dots, but they're much smaller than "normal" ladybugs. We get swarms of them in the last summer, and they definitely do bite. I was out golfing a couple of summers ago and they were swarming all over the course. Every few minutes I was getting bitten somewhere new on my body. The bites don't leave much of a mark but they definitely pinch enough that you feel it.

My vote for an insect that needs a one way ticket to the moon are earwigs. I hate those things.

Just finished golfing, and I killed 15 bugs. 1 for every 4 strokes I took (9 holes lol).

[Ray Zee]

lady bugs bite also but only during their mating season.

i have been bitten by snapping turtles, snakes, bees, birds, leeches all over me in swamps, even fish. worst is wasps and big spiders. but nothing compared to a two outer getting you.
