    I am actually phobic when it comes to cockroaches, moths, and beetles.

    Any other bug also makes me feel highly uncomfortable.

    These are also cool! I'd love to feel them. Can imagine them under my fingers. They must be smooth.

    I also love leaf insects. They curl their tails up and look like scorpions! And they smell like silkworms!

    My husband is terrified of them!
