Kafka used the word ungeziefer to describe gregor's transformation. in the translation, the word "vermin" is used. what image does the word "vermin" suggest?

The word vermin is used for wild animals which are believed to be harmful to crops or which carry disease, but metaphorically can be used to depict despicable people or people causing problems for the rest of society. Therefore, use of this word suggests that Gregor Samsa will despicable and a problem for society (in this case, he is a problem to his family). Critics have argued about the meaning of “The Metamorphosis” written by Franz Kafka, but many believe that the Grete, Gregor’s sister, is the central character and that Gregor’s existence has driven all attention from her and became harmful for her future and future of her parents. As Volker Drüke suggests, Grete is the one that actually experiences metamorphosis – she has matured as a result of the new family circumstances and assumed responsibility. She becomes a woman and after her brother’s death, the parents also notice that she “who was getting more animated all the time, had blossomed […] into a beautiful and voluptuous young woman”, and want to look for a partner for her.
