attack of the killer moths
Jun. 9th, 2003 08:53 amSo Colorado is undergoing its once-ever-ten-years Miller Moth invasion. Moths here are one of those creatures that have a boom-and-bust life cycle, like cicadas in the east, and this is their year in the big time. Open a cabinet, and a moth flies out. Get in the car, and there are five or six flying around in there. Several dozen cram behind our mailbox flap each day.
They're not dangerous (gah, can you imagine if they had teeth? Phew) but they are annoying as hell. Don't even try to read by lamplight at night. Stupid moths.
As the weather warms, they're moving up into the high country, where they will be eaten by bears. Go bears!
