The house centipedes can become extinct for all I care. Bastard things.

Don't see as many black jacks or earwigs as we used to, and those tiny red spiders that were found outside on ledges.

Haven't seen those little red fuckers for ages.

Used to sit there as a very small lad squishing them on my veranda wall made my finger red.

It’ll take more than a world war, mate - unless that was a nuclear war - in which case it’s not just humans that will be culled.

They’ll be an outbreak of something that will wipe millions out, it’s happened before and will again.
It’ll probably start in Asia somewhere and spread west. In all honesty it probably needs to happen for the rest of nature to survive otherwise we’ll wipe everything out.

Hasn't there been a bit of a push to get us all to eat more insects because it's good for the environment? It's bloody hard to keep up with it all.
