OMG EW

[liradralyn]

I go to pour my cereal this morning and what should fall out into my bowl but an earwig. Last week we had the gross and disturbing experience of finding about 60 of them inside our barbecue cover, and although I managed to squish about 15 of them with a hammer as they ran for their lives, many of them got away by hiding in between the patio tiles

uughhrhihghh......omg gross. I would have been totally put off eating for the rest of the day. We had an earwig problem once at my parents' house. You might want to invest in some household insect poison since the earwig is akin to the cockroach in terms of sustainability. You might even want to talk to your landlord about it if you see a lot more of them around the house. But definitely get some raid-traps going. *shivers*

Wikipedia is such a great site.

I would never eat cereal again...and I eat cereal everyday.

God reminds me of Arachnophobia when they are looking for a specimen.
