Heroic Pests

Batman had some guests who outdid their stay
By making a muddle with their foul play

Robin was first, yet his diet of late
Were larva and worms that slid off his plate

Spiderman came without hesitation
Except his kids caused an infestation

By crawling about for a place to spin
And webbing the doors so none could get in

He welcomed Green Hornet as a fond guest
But not all his tiny flying pet pests

Ant-man and The Wasp also brought their kids
Which added hundreds of problems, they did

As Batman fluttered behind them that night
He couldn’t refrain from taking a bite
 
Of heroic spawn in many guises
Coz they bugged Batman and came in pint sizes
