Post by: loulou on July 08, 2006, 12:54:21 am

A giant moth is flying around your room. Do you.....

a.) Spray it with fly spray

b.) Hit it with the newspaper

c.) Let the cat catch it and eat it

d.) Wait for it to settle on the wall then spray it with hair laquer until it tries to move and a wing falls off

e.) Gently pick it up and take it oustside

f. ) Squash it with loo paper and flush it away

In my house we have to:

g) Identify it from the Book of Moths.  Then

h) Stand around admiring it.  Then

i)  Leave the windows open permanently until it decides to leave.

Moths give me the willies. I try to get them out the window but would not kill one.

The world's largest moth is the Atlas.  Imagine trying to coax this out of the window.  Completely harmless by the way.  Might lick you to death I suppose.

I wave it out of the window and do my best to avoid killing it in the process.

If you squish them they just leave a chalky mess which you then have to clean up so I just leave them be or hoover them up (if I see them while hoovering)

It depends, usually I cant coax them out so I squash them with something.

How can you pour bleach on something that is in the air?

When it is on the ground.

To get it on the ground you'd have to swat it first.

Last night I hit one with a newspaper and when it was on the ground I stood on it. I had that chalky mess on my floor.
