Everyone has bed bugs in their beds, unless you wash your sheets every day or live in a negatively pressured room.

I dislike house centipedes the most. Has anyone seen those things up close? They're absolutely revolting and just as fast as cockroaches, although I hate those, too.

Bed bugs are not ubiquitous and, if you did have them in your bed, simply washing the sheets every day would not get rid of them. Unless you are talking about dust mites which are a whole other kettle of fish.

I'm afraid of wasps, but I loathe lady bugs. I've hated them since the time one of them tried to CRAWL INTO MY EYE while I was sleeping. They also come into my room for the express purpose of dying on my window sill which has not endeared them to me either.

For me, it's ants. Even the tiny little ones scare me. When I was a kid, maybe 9 years old, I stayed over at a friend's house and they weren't too big on cleaning, they always had ants in the house but this one time we went to bed and I jumped out screaming in pain; the bed was FILLED with friggin ANTS! And worse is in larger amounts I'm allergic to their stings, so I had GIANT welts - some of them bled! Plus, we lived in the desert and had a ton of the ones with wings and then the BIGGER ants :/

Flies also scare me

I don't want to ever run into any bedbugs, but I had to say WASPS here...since we have aggressive and large wasp nests in this area. They will chase you and bite. No fun.

Funny thing, I got a bearded dragon and had to learn about different roaches - and now I dislike them less.

There are some species that are actually okay. I have 150 dubia roaches on their way, and they are actually really harmless and kind of cute, like tiny trilobites. They will not breed below tropical climate, either - so if any escaped in my house, they wouldn't be baby-making and trying to take things over.

There are some really scary roaches out there, though - like ones that can even climb glass !
