@coluber2001,
13 animals or plants you could do without.
1. Poison ivy. It does make you more mindful and watchful, though.
2. mosquitos: the literal most dangerous animal on the planet.
3. A lot of Humans - but, we're not allowed to eliminate any of these animals!
4. Nits (Head Lice - Pediculus humanus capitis, the bane of schoolchildren)
5. Roaches - they take care of problems but in doing so make their own nasty, sickening problems. If only they were good "house keepers"!
6. Stinging nettle and noseburn (Tragia),
7. fire ants?
8. chiggers
9. poison oak
10. Great White shark
(We'll have to disagree on this one.)
11. bedbugs
12. Ligustrum sinense, Chinese privet, introduced and extremely aggressive.
13.
Spongy moth caterpillar (formerly known as gypsy moth catepillars): invasive species that's been rampant in the Hudson Valley, NY - decimating the leaves and trees in Harriman State Park for the past 2 years
