A Children's Guide to Splattered Bugs

This is an actual sign I saw on the side of a gas pump I used today. Why didn’t I ever think of doing something like this?! It seems like something I would have enjoyed having around when I was a kid. Then again, I think I’m more impressed with the ad campaign itself (and 76 seems to have blitzkrieged Seattle with banners and billboards recently).

I wouldn’t be surprised if half of these bugs had Twitter accounts, too.

I gotta get me a bug vacuum – or a spider vacuum, if I have to get something pest-specific. It’s spider season here in Seattle, and Ponzi and I are crawling out of our respective skins. She’s already gone through 14 magazines today (with the victims getting anything but more literate). If there’s a can within reach, our uninvited pest guests are treated to a complementary insecticide bath. We used to deploy the handheld vacuum to suck up spiders, but nobody ever wanted to clean the trap afterwards. A bug vacuum may be the only way to go… zip zap!
