I'm not remotely afraid of mice and other small critters. But once I stuck my hand into the big plastic garbage bin we used to store dogfood, only to have a field mouse jump *into* that hand. I screamed.
Then I caught the poor little mousy (who'd got himself trapped among 60 lbs of kibble) and let him loose in the field across the street.
True story. I was sitting in the basement watching tv when a mouse ran over my foot. I screamed and jumped to the bed that was there. My Father came running down the stairs thinking I had killed myself or something. No.. I killed the mouse. By screaming. Death by scream!
Oo Oo me too! One time, we'd had a long weekend at my grandma's house. We came back, and I really had to pee, so I immediately ran to the bathroom and there was a DEAD MOUSE FLOATING IN THE TOILET. I screamed, and commenced dancing around trying not to pee myself while mom flushed it. And then I was afraid to pee. Because I decided it had come up from the sewer, because we'd had the lid down.
Also, I screamed as recently as yesterday, when I failed to kill a fuzzy black spider.

I've used both. It really depends on how caring about animals I'm feeling that day.
