Rasulullah (sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam) said: “Whoever kills a small bird for no reason, it will beseech Allah on the Day of Qiyamah saying, ‘O my Rabb, so and so killed me for no reason. And he did not kill me for any beneficial purpose'” (Sunan Nasai; Al Mujtaba, Hadith: 4446, Musnad Ahmad, vol. 4 pg. 389 and Sahih Ibn Hibban; Al Ihsan, Hadith: 5894)

SubhanAllah, look at how merciful Allah swt is - we will be held to account for any injustice we commit against any creature, humans or animals.
And I can never understand why anyone would hurt an animal for no reason, they can't speak or cry out or anything. And I love reading the hadiths regarding the compassion of the Prophet :saws: towards animals, if only more of us had that attitude in this day and age.

A FATWA from above link
A. Abu Hurayra related that,�
"The Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace be upon him) forbade making animals suffer."�
[Bukhari]�
In the name of Allah, the Compassionate, the Merciful.�
To kill animals and insects which are harmful to one's self or belongings (such as pests) is permissible.�
However, maximum effort should be made to minimize the suffering and pain. There is a whole chapter in the famous Hanafi Fiqh reference Fatawa al-Hindiyya regarding the killing of animals and what may and may not be done.�
Therefore, to keep traps which kill the animals is permissible, although traps which disable them or cause slow, painful death may not be kept as harming the animal and making it suffer is not permissible.�
Abu Hurayra related that, "The Messenger of Allah (blessings and peace be upon him) forbade making animals suffer." [Bukhari]�
The Prophet (Allah bless him & give him peace) said, " Do not harm the creation of Allah." [Abu Dawud, from al-Ma`rur ibn Suwayd. Imam Jamal al-Din al-Zayla`i declared it to be a rigorously authenticated (sahih) hadith in Nasb al-Raya.]�
This is why Ibn Hajar al-Haytami (Allah have mercy on him) mentions in his work on the major sins, al-Zawajir, that the scholars have explicitly stated that causing animals undue harm, such as hitting them painfully, without a sound reason is a major sin (kabira). [Ibn Hajar al-Haytami, al-Zawajir `an Iqtiraf al-Kaba'ir, 2.140]�
And only Allah knows best.�

If this is a Big Sin how big sin could beabout harming people ??
Harming them by many means ? even by hurting with bad words and poking them indirectly or making facial expressions , seeing and spiting them . Meeting your brother with a smile is a virtue And so doing all this is sin as well which is overlooked even by the knowledgeable .

You can kill those insects if they are harmful or causes problems or if there is a risk of such.
