Are you afraid of that cockroach that sneaks out from under your bed or from the kitchen closet and flies straight to you? Do you hate being bit by those buzzing mosquitoes? Those unhygienic houseflies keep troubling you when you sit for a snack in the open, right?
We are simple surrounded by numerous unwanted insects that keep bothering and irritating us. These include filthy cockroaches coming out from drains and pipes, disease carrying agents; mosquitoes that seem to survive and lay eggs on even clean water, the pathetically insanitary houseflies that just sit on all the mucky and soiled things on earth and then make their way easily on the most delicious cupcake you might have sat to eat, the disgusting little locusts who seem to be hungry all the time, so much that they can finish up an entire bulk of crops, the itchy and annoyingly gross lice that build their home-sweet-home on our heads and are stubborn enough to not let go off their property without a hefty fight at the court and many more.
These unwanted insects make their plights on garbage disposal areas, sit on faecal matter and rotten food, fly around contaminated places and then come back to us to give us the shudder.
