9 Disgusting Bug Videos That Will Make You Squirm

1. 1. Toilet Spider

   Nope. No. No. Uh-uh. No thanks. Nope. Bye.

2. 2. There is a Bug on Your Face

   Pop quiz! What's grosser: this whip scorpion, or that guy's mustache?

3. 3. Spider Worm

   After killing a big spider, the videographer noticed something escaping from its corpse. Haunted spaghetti? No, that's a nematode, or parasitic roundworm. Fun fact: There are thousands of tiny ones inside you at this very moment. Have a great day!

4. 4. Bed Bugs

   It's hard to imagine anything worse than untold thousands of bedbugs crawling around your bed while you sleep.

5. 5. Maggot Therapy

   All right, this is worse than bed bugs.

6. 6. "Big Spider Attacks Daddy"

   The phrase "spider attacks" in this video title is a little harsh. "Spider justly and appropriately defends itself" is more fitting.

7. 7. Bot Fly Extraction

   Bot flies are an old standby. YouTube is full of disgusting extraction videos.

8. 8. Giant Centipede vs. Snake

   The Vietnamese centipede, or scolopendra subspinipes, is among the largest centipedes on Earth, with a maximum length of about 20 cm. Highly venomous, it is the only species of centipede verified to have killed a human.

9. 9. Deadly Spider Bites With "Dr. Venom"

   The creepy spider expert/Bond villain known as Dr. Venom adds to the charm of this video. What's more unsettling – the long shots of horrible spider bite infections, or the way he lovingly handles his eight-legged friends?

Warning: Graphic, potentially disturbing content. Proceed with caution.

YouTube can be an amazing and inspiring place full of educational and hilarious videos. But it also houses some pretty dark corners.

That's where we're shining a light today: nine "creature feature" videos that would make Indiana Jones proud. We waded into the seething masses for the very best material (and by "best," of course, we mean "nauseating"). We originally aimed for an even 10 videos, but just didn't have the nerve.

For the entomology nerds among us, it's true that the term "bug" should really only include insects of the order Hemiptera. But for the sake of better gross-outs, we widened the definition to the informal use, which applies to a number of arthropods, including spiders and centipedes. You're welcome.
