No.

Never seen a cockroach in my life.
Spiders. I'll kill 1 in a heart beat.

overall the fallacy of man's subjective moral compass. He can't even come to a standard conclusion concerning how to treat animals, much less his fellow man.

I stated one

Risk v reward Pretty much

It's society

Everything has it's purpose, but roaches in your home means your dirty... Fleas on your dog or cat are uncomfortable for both and the only way to help one is to eliminate the other ... It is morally acceptable to kill a spider or rodent that has invaded your home but to go out of your way to kill them can be seen as early signs of a serial killers mentality

Also their different classes of animals and bugs ... Some can really harm you so in that case it's kill of be killed

You can't class them all together like that, it's a mind fuck and you know it ... If theirs a brown recluse nest in your basement do you eliminate the potentially life threatening issue or do you do what you state as being morally acceptable and try to live amongst these venomous creatures trying to avoid being bit? If theirs a copper head nest in the tree stump in your back yard do you avoid your own quarters or do you maintain a safe environment and get rid of the snakes? I think it's your moral responsibility to eliminate the problem or it could be deadly to not only you but someone you love or live around.
