Moths are evil.
Everyone knows that! They will flap their dusty wings near your eyes and tangle in your hair. You are lucky if you have no hair in this case I guess.
Then they will stare at you blabbing some evil spells. Oh yes. There are spells. Just cause you don't hear them, doesn't mean they are not there. The worst of all the evil spells.
There is one solution only to handle so much nastiness.
Catch them in the thick glass jar, cover the exit with a newspaper and quickly remove the flying witch outside. All this must be done smoothly and confidently. They will sense your fear and come back with backup.
After you have done all that close all the windows, blinds, curtains and hide under the blanket.
You have survived another day.
Well done!
Ok, not that you have gone though my gibberish, I have a nasty moth for ya :)
They are commonly known as Silver Y moth and this is due to the white pattern on their wings, which you can see on the photos.
I was surprised to see this one feeding on the flowers during the day in the full, hot sun. But apparently the Y moth does that. She will fly both during the day and night.
It can be often found in the gardens as the adult feeds on nectar, but it will also look for a place to lay eggs. Larvae will feed on garden plants like peas or cabbage.
See the nasty little eyes? 🙈
