Night trophy

Jump to Comments

I hate insects. Quite passionately. I am not scared of them like V., who needs professional assistance for dealing with every single spider or bee, but I become annoyed of them very easily. The drawback of living in a relatively green environment is that an alarmingly large number of animal treats our flat as their natural habitat. Since we live on the 4th floor, it mainly means moths of any size; sometimes especially daring and ambitious grasshoppers and locusts. Unfortunately (for them) I am not a tolerant person about territorial questions.

Fortunately at the end of the summer, the endless course of these little, ugly creatures usually starts to thin. So, since it’s October, I was positively surprised when I felt an especially gargantuan specimen brushing my hair with its wings. I immediately knew that it was time for drastic action — for beginners, the plastic case of Tylenol is especially effective in crushing unsuspectingly landing moths. Nice trophy, isn’t it?

    Yeah… because they bite me, and they are one and all evil-looking. But I have no problem with moths. They are cute :P :) .
