Do you think bugs like flies and spiders feel pain when we kill them?
I smushed a spider today, and my son asked me if it hurt on the spider! What do you think? Does it hurt on the fly we swat or the spider we squish?
I should add this isn't the best I've read on it but the best of the simplest versions I have read

Yes it was interesting! Thank you:). Don´t you even slap a mosquitou that tries to bite you, or a fly in your kitchen?
Quoting mitchiesgirl:

No. My husband guides them outside (I'm usually too short to reach them), but Mosquitos rarely come inside
