At least I'm not alone in that department then....I hate being around bugs that can sting, and pretty much every flying bug in my area irks me to some extent (moths are a pest, and flys are just plain annoying. Both just seem to love flying around my head whenever I'm trying to eat) except for lady bugs and butterflies. I like those.
I have a somewhat mild fear of bees I guess. I can go to areas where there are plenty of them, but it doesn't change the fact that I don't like being near them, even though I well know they only sting when someone purposely gets in their way. I hate Wasps and Yellowjackets even more.
And I don't know, there seems to be a distinct difference in the way flys and bees buzz, and this one sounded much more like a bee to me....I definitely can't stand flys either, I've had them in my house plenty of times and always go out of my way just to swat them or lure them out of the house. But a bee is much worse, since I could still try to swat it, but it can actually try to attack me back. And God, would it hurt if it succeeded.
