Bullshit! I found evidence of their proliferation in my cupboard and behind the bed.

This hits deep. I need to change my life.
Moths are my cat's favorite prey. He used to eat flies, and occasionally the spicy flies, but now it's just moths.
There isn't much else for him to hunt in the house. Thankfully, we have no rodents.
Indian accent How can she hunt??
The moth is near a desk lamp that's turned off, the human's shadow is coming from another light source. Dunno, guyse, but I think this is fake
There is a signature and site on right bottom but I can't find stuff on either of those. Unless sign isn't saying MT203
Open door to free moth. Two moth enter.
We catch and release most of the bugs that get into our house, if we can. One of my kids was horrified when a friend's mom squished a bug while he was visiting, because that's not what we do!
Mosquitos are the exception
I train my kids to kill mosquitoes on sight. Spiders live rent free in my house.
Spiders terrify me, but I respect them and have been trying to get moree comfortable around them. They are just smol fast crawlies that like tasty bugs, so I let them chill when I see them.
Yeah, there is cutie moth that wants a piece of my light and fucking piece of shit food moth that came in with a package of dried dates and lays it's fucking eggs in all of my food, it deems fit for it's hellspawns, even if it is stored in tightly screwed closed glasses.
Fuck this second kind of moth.
Moth needs to stop runningaway when I try to let it outside, I just want to help but I can't help if I can't catch it.
"Yeah let me allow this giant that controls ~~lamps~~ God catch me"
Why would you kill a moth? It's so fuzzy and cute like a miniature plushie π
And immediately after releasing the Moth flies back into the house..
If you didnβt want to die along with your progeny, you shouldnβt have nested on my sweater, you fuzzy pod of bitch.
Non-animal fabrics don't have this issue.
Nudists also donβt have this issue
Moths are nudists. Checkmate atheists
My favorite wool sweater didnβt deserve to have babies put inside her in the middle of the night when no one could help.
Moths are usually slow enough to catch in your hand. They're not gonna bite so they're pretty easy to take outside manually.
Or another trick is to use light to coerce them into another room, like a bathroom. Then leave the window open and the door shut and by morning they'll have gone out the window.
Are people seriously out here killing moths?
Bastards.
You gnaw my suit, you get the boot.
Honestly, the small angular ones that lay larvae on clothing get swatted or electrocuted without a second thought. They fall into the mosquito category.
Everything else gets escorted outside or, if not feasible without risking harm, left to their own devices.
I'll admit I have a huge fear of moths ever since I was a kid. I wouldn't kill it, because I couldn't get close to it, but wouldn't cry either... :(
Fair. My cousin has a fear of moths. He once described encountering a moth at night:
"I could hear him, out in the hall, his whings beating. whooosh whoosh. I held my blanket tight, and waited for him to pass. And that's when the door swung open. CRASH I looked up from under the covers and screamed. AAAAAH"
I never did find out how he got rid of that moth.
I hope he didn't kill it.
