Does anyone have any good methods for getting Moths out of a room?
It's that time of the year (Summer to Autumn) where Moths pretty much invade.
And I really really really hate them, and also have a fear of them.
I could never touch one or try to grab one in tissue, or with a cup or something.
I know that the best thing to do is try and prevent them getting in at all, which tends to consists of ensuring lights are off in my room, and the window is closed.
But it gets stuffy through the day, so I like the window open.
And it gets dark at night (obviously) and I can't see, so I need the light on (or the light from my PC monitor attracts them in).
So, other than that, I always keep my net curtain and my actual curtain closed, to try and stop them getting in through the window or being attracted by the light.
Anyway, that seems to do stuff all, and even if it is somewhat effective, some still get in.
And it's always the biggest forgeters.
And they fly in and out of my paper lamp-shade for the ceiling light, and make this horrible noise, or they fly at my computer or TV while I'm using them.
So, what is the best pansy method to get rid of them?
I can't touch them. Not happening.
I could get my Dad to try and get it, but by the time I get him, it's hidden somewhere else to come out later, or it's late at night and I piss him off by waking him to get a moth.
And I always imagine it will work, but the idea of turning off all the lights in my room, and turning on the landing light and opening the door for them to flutter out into, really doesn't do a thing.
Apparantly moths are attracted to light, but only when I don't want them to be.
Please help.
