My otherwise peaceful Sunday evening dedicated to playing an online game and myLotting was disturbed by an invading horde of moths. I do not no where the moths came from or why they decided to invade my humble abode but they were met with furious resistance. After turning off the lights, I checked the interwebs in my mobile phone to see what I can do to turn back the aggressive flying invaders. A tub of water placed under a sole light source will do the trick. After determining my options, I came to the conclusion that the dinning table light would be best. Of course the bathroom would have been better but hindsight is 20/20. After an arduous battle, I came out victorious. Let me enjoy the spoils of war. Later I will add photos as proof of my victory. What have you been doing my fellow myLotters? Edit: I've added the photos I took during the attack.

@allen0187 Oh yes, I am doing okay Allen at this moment, I have a system here as to how to do so. It is coolest in early dawn and near midnight, so I open windows and cool off that way. Hope you get this flying creatures gone.

I guess you should really eliminate them since they will become termites after they find a suitable place to start their own colony soon. That is why you should catch as many as you can.

@allen0187 Those will find their way to creating their own colonies if they find a good suitable place to start it.

I would just turn off the light for 5 minutes. They would be gone by then. I thought you're living in an apartment or something. I guess they would travel far to seek the light.

Congratulations on your victory. It is not easy to win over these invaders simply because of shear numbers they come in.

You need a cat! My cat would be thrilled if an army of moths moved in and would probably dispatch every one!

Here we got winged termites, cockroaches and small + BIG rats. Sadly, a big got into the kitchen, usually when they're outside the dogs deals with them.

Funny battle you had there. We get Japanese beetles that invade out homes sometimes and it helps having water with a little dish soap to catch those buggers. They like the smell I suppose and then down. Not many here know that truck though.
