Me - Cockroaches and Mosquitos. Neither serve a purpose in this planet so let em all drown

1. Skeeters thrive in static water
I think they are perfectly capable of surviving without my help.

4. Definitely the roaches. I get chill bumps thinking about them.
I would probably have a hard time bringing maggots as well.

5. House flies. What is their purpose on earth?
Also, roaches, silverfish, millipedes, fleas, ticks, and other nasty "bugs" with no purpose except to make life miserable.

Mosquitoes are at least good for bat food, aren't they?

9. Camel Spiders
Ugh...scary little buggers. Shade seekers, so if you're walking in the desert they 'chase' you to seek the shade of your shadow. CREEEEPY!
