This pretty well captures things! Insects that eat other insects are worth rooting for, but like you, I’m on team spider.

Spiders are no insects technically. But whatever...

Are either centipedes or spiders insects? I thought insects only had 6 legs

[-] Thisfox@sopuli.xyz 10 points 1 year ago

They are arthropods, just like lobsters and insects, but no, they are not insects. Spiders are arachnids.

Centepides actually only have 6 legs. You can see the six real legs if you look closely at a picture. The other "legs" work like legs, but are not actually legs.

I'm a severe arachnophobe but I still would rather have them than centipedes.
