Re: Not killing is sometimes very difficult.
I once had a friendship with a palmetto bug that lived in my kitchen. He would sit waiting patiently for his "dinner" as I prepared mine. I fed it at the same time that I fed the cats, in his corner of a shelf.

Re: Not killing is sometimes very difficult.
Ever since first posting this thread, I feel like I've been channeling Adam's situation in my own life.
In the last couple of days, I've had to evict 4-5 wasps from my home. Its only the beginning of Spring down here. Summer should be interesting.

in mountain clefts and chasms,
loud gush the streamlets,
but great rivers flow silently.

Re: Not killing is sometimes very difficult.
I've never seen a Palmetto before, amazing experience...
A butterfly is hibernating in my staircase. It's safe from freezing temperatures, but cool. 10 ° C. It'll be interesting to watch what happens in spring.
I've a special relationship with butterflies.
