I read this in a biography. He was afraid of ants, because as a kid, he was taking care of an injured bat. The next day, he came back to nurse the bat, but ant were crawling over its dead corpse. Needless to say, it was a disturbing motif, that he later used in his artwork to represent death and decay. For example, in the Persistence of Memory, ants crawl on some of the clocks.

He feared grasshoppers, germs, and assassination. Some believe he wasn't really afraid of these; he just wanted people to think of him in a certain way(he was an egomaniac).

He had a huge phobia of insects, especially crickets. That's why they are pictured in many of his paintings.
