Centipedes. These alien lifeforms really squick me out. Today, one crawled onto my bath towel while I was showering, and when I was drying myself off it crawled onto my bare chest. I can still feel his little freak legs crawling on my skin an hour later.
I used to hate roaches the most when I lived in Texas. Especially the flying ones!
Bugs in general.
Considering I just got stung multiple times by hornet, hornets.
Rats. Blame James Herbert if you like, but I do not fancy going out to Well's Disease.
I don't know if spiders can be called vermin but the South African rain spider is fearsome looking but harmless. 😳😳🕷️🕷️
Roaches, it will always be roaches. Bastards are everywhere during the summer, finding cracks and crawling in them. Hate them.

Oh my gosh that sounds horrific! I think there's a good chance my heart would have stopped from fright if that happened to me. That's why I say sometimes these bugs, though maybe they can't all kill with venom, can absolutely terrify someone to death by horror factor alone. If I were superstitious, which I am, I would ask that you check to see if you've crossed anyone into black magic recently. A: A centipede B: crawling on you C: while naked – sounds like attempted murder via dark arts.
I make a point to try never to kill anything but I make exceptions for mosquitos and roaches. I don't really consider mosquitos vermin though, maybe more of a nuisance, and if I can shoo them out I will. Roaches, however, are ruthless invaders and so hard to get rid of - I would even say impossible if you're in an urban area and your neighbors have them too. My husband knows someone that has such a bad infestation that he brings "hitchhikers" with him wherever he goes. We haven't seen him in person for years because of this. He's always asking to hang out and it's so sad, but he HAS to know, right?
Fleas. And Bed bugs. Brrrrr!!!!
Head lice, fire ants, and rats.
brown recluse spiders. may they burn in hell.
