## Some say that it is permitted to kill bugs on Yom Tov that are bothering you.<ref>Melachim Emunecha (p. 279) quoting Rav Yakov Kamenetsky that it is permitted to kill bugs on Yom Tov that are bothering you since it is an application of mitoch from shechita. Rabbi Zilberstein in the footnote argues that perhaps it is forbidden since it is only removing something bothering you and not producing a positive benefit (similar to the Ran's logic by Kibbuy). | ## Some say that it is permitted to kill bugs on Yom Tov that are bothering you.<ref>Melachim Emunecha (p. 279) quoting Rav Yakov Kamenetsky that it is permitted to kill bugs on Yom Tov that are bothering you since it is an application of mitoch from shechita.

* The approach of Rav Yakov Kamenetsky assumes that mitoch also applies to shechita, which is the opinion of the Lechem Mishna (Yom Tov 1:4) and implication of Beitzah 12a. However, the Levush 495:1 writes that mitoch only applies to hotzah and haavarah. This is also the opinion of the Binah B'ittim (Yom Tov 1:4) in understanding the Rambam (see also Maggid Mishna 1:4). </ref> Some say that it is forbidden.<ref>Melachim Emunecha (p. 279) questions whether it is permitted. Shemirat Shabbat Kehilchata (ch. 2 fnt. 40) implies it is forbidden. See an article by [http://ph.yhb.org.il/plus/12-03-03-03/ Rabbi Kayam] who quotes a number of poskim about this question. </ref> | |||
