I have a fear of moths... IIN?

you remind me of a friend. We often drink on her front verandah and sometimes, out of nowhere she will let out a blood curdling scream and leap up like someone has cattle prodded her ass.
She then goes into some crazy ninja mode. I look up and there's a harmless, beautiful little moth fluttering about the outside light.

If you want to get rid of them, turn off the light, that's what attracts them.
