Quote:
"Cursed is the ground because of you; through painful toil you will eat of it all the days of your life.
It will produce thorns and thistles for you, and you will eat the plants of the field. By the sweat of your brow you will eat your food until you return to the ground, since from it you were taken; for dust you are and to dust you will return."

Genesis 3:18-20
I think that because of sin, rats and mice began to carry diseases, nasty little creatures such as hornets, mosquito's, crop destroying pests and bugs, all became a burdeon to mankind.
Population control is one of our responsibilities as stewards of this earth which includes harvesting things like deer, cattle, rabbits, etc and protecting ourselves from the overpopulation of pests.
Personally, I have always viewed the cans of Raid Hornet poison that can shoot 35 feet as one of Gods finest blessings to mankind.
I like it much better than shooting the nest with a shotgun and running like crazy for the house.
