oooohhhh Sweetpea. After that recent crow thread....I'd be skeered of ticking off the crows too much. They remember ya for generations on generations. {#emotions_dlg.scared}

Well, no wonder I have such bad luck. Spiders don't last anywhere near me. I hate 'em.

I didn't watch the video and that is why I posted what I did...I strongly dislike them.

The spiders? I was thinking the same thing. Don't do spiders.shocked scream smiley

Topaz and Gazelle - I relocate spiders, too! However, I do kill their kin, those nasty ticks!

I relocate bugs too. And after a heavy rain, I pick up earth worms off the street and toss them in the grass

Re: Do You Interfere with Mother Nature?

Yes, I chase the squirrels off my balcony. Neighbor below me makes them peanut butter sandwiches (really!) & leaves them out on her balcony. All well & good, except after they're finished down there, they climb the brick wall up to my balcony looking for more food. Then they poop all over my balcony & I have to clean it up.{#emotions_dlg.thumbdown}

I chase squirrels away. I don't like those destructive little jerks, nor do I like rabbits. I always welcome the hawks and eagles. They help me out a lot.

sweetpea ~ Awww, you are a creature lover! We have a small yard, but I move little critters too......bugs, worms, spiders.....I relocate if I know they're going to get squished.

Flies, ants, and wasps are a goner. The rest are left alone. Most anything else is welcome.

I did have an infestation of Norway Rats last summer after a neighbor did some digging for new patio. Those had to go...Sulfur Bombs.
