Those holes in the seat of your trousers aren't caused by large moths Jim_bob. Mr FBW strikes again I'm afraid.  :'(

We've been getting a few (really small ones in our case). Spotted a few small holes in articles of clothing too. :-/  

Will have to bring some of my garage spiders inside to polish them off. Mrs. KW 'ain't going to like that. ;D

Be careful if you see tiny ones in the house - they could be carpet moths, and they make a right mess of a 33ft length of carpet  >:(

If you see these blighters, move all the furniture, and check if the pile is loose. If so, call the pest control...

If hes got them, it will be because Ljay has bought them and nurtured them in the lounge carpet  :y

Why are moths or any insects for that matter so attracted to liquid.
No sooner do I  put down my beer than there is a dead beastie floating in it.
Anyone know why? :-[ :-/
