Moths on my mind. =0(
My world has been taken over by moths. This may sound dramatic, but seriously just ask my previous roommates. Starting in the spring we have had tons of tiny little moths flyin
g all over our apartment. You always knew when one reached it's end because you would hear a slap/clap of some kind randomly. I was the most annoyed by this though. My reaction enterained many people, but I will say this, I am tired of the moths. They are still here many months later, though not as many but none the less here. I decided today that I needed to do some digging to figure out what was going on and how to fix it. I thought the problem would go away by a good cleaning. When I arrived a couple weeks ago I thought I would just throw anything opened away and and wipe out every cupboard and drawer. I did that but to my annoyance, they are still here.

The eggs hatched, larva fed and grew, and the adults flew around, annoyed me and mated. And the cycle goes on. So what do I do now...more cleaning is all they suggest. Look for spider-web like substance in your food, look for larva...start storing opened foods in air tight containers...freeze opened foods if you can. TOOO MUCH. Am I tired of the moths? Yes. What I don't unde
rstand is if they supposedly have such a short life why do I find them everywhere. They are in the bedroom, bathroom, living room, closed glass book shelfs, and they have been found in almost every cupboard in the kitchen. I honestly would rather be infested with this pink moth, then worry about tiny eggs, larva, spider-web like things...because he would be easy to find and catch.

Well not much else to do but start my search. Taylor, Alexis, and Sunny I know you are laughing at me right now, but admit it, you were glad to leave them behind. =0)
