Top Ten Worst Insects

The Top Ten
Mosquitoes Spanish for "small fly," mosquitoes are insects that have been known to cause various diseases. A sample of diseases caused by mosquitoes: malaria, yellow fever, Chikungunya, West Nile virus, dengue fever, filariasis, Zika virus.

I hate mosquitoes! I don't mind them drinking my blood since they're only eating lunch, but then the bite itches like crazy, and they might even transmit deadly diseases like dengue.

Plus, they make annoying noises like BUZ zzzz zzzzz buzzz when you sleep, and then bite you. When you wake up, you have 222 itchy bites.

Definitely the worst. They bite you to suck blood, are the reason why my family doesn't usually have parties outside at night, and carry deadly diseases.

I hate mosquitoes. They bite and bite anyone. They have no good qualities whatsoever. They just carry several diseases such as malaria, dengue, and Zika.

Wasps

Once, we had a wasp nest in our yard, and it took forever to get rid of it. It was outside of my room, and it was summer, so I couldn't open my window for weeks!

These insects are awful and should be tied with mosquitoes.

I voted for wasps because where I live, there are no mosquitoes! Say what you will about bees, but at least when they sting, they have a good reason to!

Wasps are just annoying insects that sting people for no reason. This insect should be number one on this list.

Flies

You see them flying past, but when you try to find them, they're nowhere to be seen. They're extremely annoying when they land on your face, and when you try to kill them, they splatter yellow stuff all over your hands.

Flies are very annoying. They are very hard to stop, and they ruin food with their eggs.

They are annoying as hell and hard to kill.

Cockroach Cockroaches (or roaches) are a paraphyletic group of insects belonging to Blattodea, containing all members of the group except termites. About 30 cockroach species out of 4,600 are associated with human habitats. Some species are well-known as pests... read more

I'm okay with these guys if they aren't popping out of nowhere. Sure, they're gross, but they're completely harmless and can't really bite.

God, I'm scared of cockroaches and absolutely hate them. I wish they were never on this earth!

God, I am so scared of cockroaches. I hope they were never on this earth!

Bed Bug

You don't ever want to get these things in your home. One time, they got into my family's home, and it was a nightmare. We had to burn so many things because the bed bugs had made their homes in our stuff.

It took us a year to get rid of these pesky boogers!

Sleeping on concrete is preferable to sleeping in a bed with bed bugs.

Ants Ants are eusocial insects of the family Formicidae and, along with the related wasps and bees, belong to the order Hymenoptera.

Ugh, I am always scared that if I leave the tiniest chip or drop of syrup in my room, they will come. Once, in my kitchen, there was ONE FRICKIN' DROP of honey on my counter, and there were thousands of ants.

It was awful.

Ants are awesome! I used to watch them work when I was younger. Though it is annoying when they get in your house.

Ants are the worst. They sometimes get in your house, which is so annoying.

Bees

Argh! Their stinger is too painful. One stung me, and my leg is swollen. Geez.

Horse Fly

Their bites hurt so much, and they're so hard to kill. They also enjoy disturbing pool parties.

Much worse than regular flies. They have awful bites and look creepy as hell.

They suck. They're the fastest insect, so when they bite, it hurts, and you won't even see them do it.

Fleas Flea, the common name for the order Siphonaptera, includes 2,500 species of small flightless insects that live as external parasites of mammals and birds. Fleas live by ingesting the blood of their hosts. Adult fleas grow to about 3 millimetres (1⁄8 inch) long, are usually brown, and have bodies that... read more

These insects are annoying when they hop all over you, plus they're hard to crush because of their tough skin.

Gnats

Worst insects ever! They're really tiny, and they sometimes crawl in my food, which I'm really annoyed by.

A couple of days after Thanksgiving, I saw a gnat crawling around on my plate. It went from the mashed potatoes into my stuffing. I was angry and felt like throwing it in the trash.

I hate it when I go outside in the summer and a swarm of gnats starts swarming around me. It's especially annoying when they get in your mouth and eyes!

They are much more annoying than flies.

The Newcomers

? Indian Meal Moth

One summer, Indian meal moths took over my pantry! Every time we opened something, there would be larvae in it, as well as full-grown moths.

They are so disgusting! If you see one of these in your house, get ready to fight them for your pantry.

? Woodlouse
The Contenders
Lice

They're hard to get rid of and make your scalp itch like hell!

I have lice, and it sucks. It's hard to get rid of, and my hair is so itchy as well.

Ticks

Like fleas, they have tough skin, so they're hard to kill. Plus, they carry Lyme disease.

They take hours of my time by appearing on my head.

Centipedes Centipedes are arthropods belonging to the class Chilopoda of the subphylum Myriapoda. They are mainly carnivorous and they prey upon insects, spiders, small birds and rodents, and even other centipedes.
Moths Moths comprise a group of insects related to butterflies, belonging to the order Lepidoptera. Most lepidopterans are moths; and there are thought to be approximately 160,000 species of moth, many of which are yet to be described.

I hate those things. Every time I use my phone or play on my Nintendo 3DS or Switch, one just flies in front of my screen! It's so annoying!

Fire Ant

They hurt so much, and they keep biting. They suck.

Bumblebees A bumblebee, also written bumble bee, is a member of the bee genus Bombus, in the family Apidae. The brood parasitic or cuckoo bumblebees have sometimes been classified as a subgenus or genus, Psithyrus, but are now usually treated as members of Bombus.
Locusts

You will hate this one if you are a farmer. They're the worst enemy for your crops.

They like to eat crops, so if you're a farmer, you'll hate this insect.

Yellowjacket
Hornet Hornets are the largest of the eusocial wasps, and are similar in appearance to their close relatives yellowjackets. Some species can reach up to 5.5 cm in length.

They are basically wasps on steroids. They shouldn't exist since they kill poor bees for no reason, and bees are good to us.

Bullet Ant

Obviously, I have never been stung by a bullet ant, but from what I've heard on YouTube, their stings hurt so badly. They have the most painful sting in the world, and it will cause you to scream your lungs out!

So don't get stung by a bullet ant if you don't want to feel like you're in excruciating pain!

They call it Bullet Ant for a reason! It feels like you're getting shot.

Butterfly Butterflies are part of the class of insects in the order Lepidoptera, along with the moths. Adult butterflies have large, often brightly coloured wings, and conspicuous, fluttering flight.

How could anybody love these things? They flap around you so strangely, they're addicted to colorful shirts, and they are everywhere!

Blue Morphos, to be exact.

I like insects, and I don't care for most of the insects on this list, but take this and the bee off this list immediately!

Cute, but too flappy and annoying.

Crane Fly

Often referred to as daddy longlegs, these pests have a habit of flying into your home and dying. Over the course of a week, insects constantly die, making a mess on the floor.

They are so disgusting! Basically Daddy longlegs that fly in your face.

Spiders

These creep me out! They are not insects, but their legs are so scary. Also, they are very stealthy.

Army Ant
Africanized Bee
