Flies
They are so annoying
Tiny (and some of them are absolutely minuscule) flying daredevils that can zoom in three dimensions through wild air currents to avoid your hand every time and land wherever they please? Nah, I respect flies. They're... perfected.
Flies serve many roles in nature. They help spread beneficial bacteria and mushroom spores. They are also food sources for various small animals, insects and arachnids. Sure they are annoying and creepy, but they have a place.
