Lady sees 'unknown insect' on her bed
The video, shared by @lifeofarafah on TikTok, showed the insect crawling on bed, leaving her frightened.
In her post, she expressed her fears that she had initially thought it was a cockroach or a lizard, but was horrified to discover it was something else entirely.
The student lamented the constant fear of encountering creepy crawlies in her living space, recounting previous encounters with wall geckos, cockroaches, and even a lizard that she feared had turned into a snake.
The experience left her traumatised, making it difficult for her to relax or sleep, constantly fearing that the insect was still lurking around her.
In her words:
"POV: You were sleeping after such a hectic Monday class and then felt something walking on my body thinking it was even cockroach o. Then I saw an unknown insect. What do we call this? I don too suffer for this school. Omo if it’s not wall gecko, it’s cockroach, or that lizard that later turned to snake imagine sleeping in a room with that. I can’t even close my eye back cause it feels like it’s all over my body. I don too cry. I don tire for this stupid things."

"That is a horse hair worm it's a parasite that lives inside certain insects like praying mantis. I have seen a praying mantis excreting it. The excretion process is mostly done in water, while the host insect dies after it comes out."
