New Biter Achievement name

Hey everyone,
I bought Factorio probably two weeks ago now and am really enjoying it. I've known about the game for years; I'm not sure why I never got it sooner.

Anyway, there's this quote from an episode of new Doctor Who that has been in my head ever since I first found out about the Biters in this game. It involves the Daleks speaking to the Cybermen about war with them, and one of them says, "this is not war, this is pest control."

I think the reason why is because the Biters are insects, and customarily people call professional pest exterminators if they have an insect problem in their home.

So I was wondering if that quote could be made the name of an Achievement that was related to killing the Biters. I know "It Stinks And They Don't Like It," is already a reference to the first Biters spawned from pollution; I was thinking maybe this Achievement could be triggered the first time the player kills a Biter, or maybe after they've killed five Biters or so.

Except that in Doctor Who the Daleks are little slimy bug things, and the Cybermen are the actual former humans. So...you'd get the achievement when the biters kill you! Every. Time! :p
