I have been poked only once by these critters ( when I came here in 1981, and it was a small one)as I lay on a carpeted floor in vacationland. I was on a little twin mattress with my arm stretched out resting on the carpet. The pain was maybe a little worse than a bee sting.
More recently when I was in the shower,I felt something crawling up my leg , and bascially jumped in sudden surprise, and this time it was considerably bigger than the first time, but this time the bigger fella didn't put the squeeze on me, and I escorted him out in an empty yougurt container.
I would prefer to live and let live, and really all they want to do is get away from you as fast as they can. With me, I will place them outside and free, which I understand is not an option when young kids or infants are present (maybe), or other possible variables.
