Well hi to a fellow bug saver. I don't kill them either unless I feel I have to. Mostly, all they want to do is mind their own little bug business and live.
I once found a grasshopper hanging unto a twig in a pool. He was transparent. Apparently he had hung on so long in the water as to wash away his color. I thought, if a bug desires to live that much, who am I to kill it. I took him out of the pool and he was quite happy to be saved.
Awwwwww......:)
Worms, too, but I've already emptied my five-shot at home invaders next door.
Plus, suppose I'm hungry, and you've caught a fish?
(...what I warn my unarmed Liberal neighbors about when discussing TSHTF...)
I am the same way about insects. If a spider is inside, I loft him back outside; if a wasp is on the inside of the screen, I pull the screen or hand towel em outside. But if a human shows any signs of harming my wife, family, and pets, I will put em down like the mad animal they are.
The deal with these kinds of people, is that they know why they are there. However, we have to quickly assess the situation and react, which can take a few seconds.
