📋 About This Mod
A mod to replace insects and arachnids for those who want to play the game but suffer from related phobias.
The following changes were made:
Bloodworms -> Larva/Worm Hunters (Mole Rats) Cave Crickets -> Wickets (Vicious Dogs) RadAnts -> Rats (Rats) Flying Ant Swarm -> Flying Bot (Eyebots)
Only the meshes, textures and voices were changed. They still drop the same things the original creatures did (You can get bloatfly meat from the relevant eyebot).

Bloodworms /Molerats appear to be dead in certain areas, Sanctuary for instance. Flying bots will run from you and not attack.
