I have no problem with animals on the property, none. I've had deer, a fox or two, some hawks, squirrels, etc. If they come in the house, it's a different story but if they're just running around the yard digging for grubs I could care less. It's only grass and most of it is being ripped out soon and replaced with stonescaping and/or hardscaping soon anyway. If I gave a crap about a lush green lawn I'd hire a golf course turf manager.
Bugs (particularly the biting/stinging kind) are killed on sight. Spiders outside I don't care about. Spiders inside the house get relocated outdoors.
I don't understand how some people can seemingly wack off to the thought of blowing some innocent animal's brains out for doing nothing other than living its life (especially if not destroying anything of value). Just dumb, boorish and stupid.

So bugs are a different "class" of animal, not worth your time? I'm reporting you to the local peta chapter, and we'll be protesting outside your house forthwith.
Right after I finish this delicious beefsteak, which I bought at the supermarket, so nothing had to die...
