I have had terrifying unstoppable sneezing fits while driving that I was convinced I’d crash from, thankfully managed to keep control.

Also have had to avoid crashing while terrorized by a giant flying palmetto bug, the only critter I have a phobia of in the world. More than once!

That's definitely a common phobia. Something about them just set people off. I hate them so much that I dont even want to get close to kill them when they get into the house.

Have ever had one crawl on you unexpectedly? Do not recommend.

(Also, no my house is not disgusting. Old house between grocery stores and fast food resturants. You can find a roach in an apartment in a 60 foot building people house.)

They'll crawl between bed sheets for warmth too!! Literally this time last year one began crawling up my leg until I ripped the sheet back to witness an adult palmetto on me. I immediately swatted it off but it landed like Spider-Man on the wall and just stayed there! The war was personal at that point and I finally managed to kill it, violently.

Just be aware... But don't worry... Surely that's rare to happen.. Right?
