We also have periodic outbreaks of the Gypsy Moth


I have several 75ft tall oak trees in my yard that are completely stripped of leaves this year. Whole sections of forest around here look more like November than July.

You can get hangers for that.

We get quite a few moths around here, the bats are rather fond of them, but the ratio of bat to moth is always in the moths favour.
One lovely example that I noticed on a door at work the other night was the Swallow-tailed. Lovely wing colour.

At least August spelled hangars correctly . My stepdaughter used to call moths 'bedtime butterflies', made them more attractive to kids.

I could have meant coathangers, they were made out of the same material.

Bedtime butterflies, I like that.
