    Unless someone is in imminent danger and there is no other avenue, I cannot in good conscience kill a living thing no matter the degree of perceived grotesqueness or mere inconvenience to me of said thing.

    What do you do about ants? Flies? Aphids? Cock Roaches? Mice? Slugs?

    since i have cats i have never had mice in the house (excepting a couple of rats the cats brought in) but when I found a mouse in my office, i caught it and carried it outside and let it go.

    insects? (biting insects, roaches)
    Slugs?
    for those, i am a remorseless killer!!!!!

    I can't believe this thread is still here!

    If we surround it in butterflies, will it stink less?
    The butterflies are within you.

    I truly thought it had become compost, but nooooooooooooooooo. Back it comes, like a stinky swallow to Capistrano.

    Slugs? I set out beer for them. The cheap stuff of course, the Drakes Blond Ale is for me.

    They die happy. Should leave them a bowl of lemon drops?

    That devious Snap. You just can't turn your back on her.

    We have HUGE banana slugs here. They eat the outdoor cat's food and leave huge trails across the deck. Once, a large banana slug got on DH's bike seat and he didn't realize it was there and sat on it and ended up with slime butt - which he brought to the office!

    I won't kill the banana slugs. At least not intentionally. They sometimes get underfoot. Or under butt, in DH's case.
