I WANNA HOLD IT. I WANNA PET IT. i love almost every arthropod an unhealthy amount...lol arthropds are one thing ive been /very/ passionate about since i were about 3.
i actually scare people since i go and get all sorts 'o potentially dangerous critters (more like babies, to me) in my hands. last year, during the summer, i poured sugar water into various containers and had /tons/ of honey bees and various different wasps (red wasps, paper wasps, yellow jackets and others) all mobbing around me. i was giggling like mad with probably close to IOO bees, about a dozen wasps, and one european hornet flying around me and landing on me. everyone else was scared to get near the mob of bees & wasps... :P
My mom and one of my brothers joke about me being "the bug whisperer" often and I think it's funny... I've messed with probably many thousands of arthropods and I haven't been bitten very many times. I've only been stung three times, all of which were from me accidentally mashing the bug slightly. if it's warm weather and nighttime, DONT brush your hands across flowers carelessly. female carpenter bees often hang around on flowers overnight and will let you know if you brush your hand across them in a rough enough manner to make them feel threatened lol
