Is it normal to be terrified of cockroaches?but not other bugs

Roaches are useless insects that have no purpose in this world.

That's basically how I feel. I have no clue why, but I have no problem with any other insects or arachnids for that matter. There is just something about cockroaches that makes them creepy and unsettling.

I often come across them in my house late at night when I'm on my way to bed. Once I see one, I know I won't be able to sleep until I kill it. This usually leads to a lengthy battle between me and the crafty roach and end with me going to sleep paranoid and much later than intended.

same for me it freaks me out too ever since i was really small

I too freak

I have no fear of them myself, but I can understand why you would. They can be rather large and tend to be fast moving. Remember though, they can't hurt you like spiders.

Spiders, the real enemy... yucky
