If you wake up naked in bed with your pants missing do not be alarmed. You have probably not been sexually assaulted in your sleep but instead been the victim of hungry moths looking for some delicious underpants.

Unlike other species, clothes moths, otherwise known as Tineola biselliella, don’t fly towards light. Instead, they will quite happily spend months concealed in dark wardrobes where they can breed in peace and let their progeny feast on your favourite clothes.

The biggest draw for a hungry moth is stained clothing. Sweat, dried-in food particles and oil from make-up or hair products are like a delicious buffet for moths

Owls. Get some owls. Apparently they loves them bats.

Hawks! Or an Eagle! No wait!

Predators of the owls are other owls, snakes, coyotes, bobcats and ringtail. Most predators of the owls find it hard to access the owls nest that are very high and since the owls are top carnivores. Humans are also predators of owls.

Eat the Owl? Or buy a Coyote? Gl finding a Road Runner to get rid of the coyote though! Meep Meep

Just turn the lights off and let them find their way to another light source if you leave a window wide open. They mothly come out at night anyways... mothly.

Anyway, blue belts are good at repelling pretty much anything op so you could try that.

I think it's evident from the last thread it's gone beyond funny.

Don't the blue lamp thingy majjigys (technical term) get rid?

Moths cant stand urine. If you dilute some in a plant sprayer, ideally with something like that nice smelling comfort ironing water stuff and spray in the problem areas.

frogs and toads...lots of frogs and toads

You should ride your sense of humour off into the sunset.

Pray to the baby Jebus. Alternatively, close all windows before nightfall.

You obviously don't mind my sense of humour too much, since you 'borrowed' my mothly joke

Get a lizard and recreate Godzilla vs. Mothra.

Edit: Damn already beaten to it

Why do you think I told you to ride it off into the sunset? I've been sat here waiting.
