Over 2 weeks later...
Okay...so it's been like 2 weeks and the moths are still here....that's right...still gross and yellow... BUT at least they're not coming indoors anymore. This is just gross...
AND as if the moths weren't enough, there are FLIES everywhere! MY GOODNESS! I have so many bites...and people say flies don't bite...BS.
I don't know if I like the spring anymore....
INVASION OF THE MOTHS
Okay, so I have had enough. If you were planning to visit Sydney in October, please do not. It is the most disgusting time of the year. No...not the weather - which is beautiful and in the middle of spring, but the city has been infested by moths. Most of you know that I hate bugs...like...seriously hate them. I can't stand them, and unfortunately I can't even kill them cause they gross me out. That's why I like the city - once in a while you will get a rogue mosquito or a spider, but this past week has been like no other. Apparently the winds have forced millions and millions of moths off course and into the city. They are attracted to light, and apparently even with the doors/windows closed, they still somehow find a way to get into our 27th floor appartment. We're not talking about 1 or 2 in a day, we're talking about 1 or 2 in an hour. It's just revolting. They are the size of a half dollar, and their guts are just disgusting. Our resident moth killer (my husband) has used our fly swatter way too often, that now the yellow colour has been covered with brown...anyway, too much information.
Yesterday, we sprayed our balconies and Jackson was dancing in moth guts...anyway, too much information again. To avoid the smell, we decided to go to the golf range to clear the air, and low and behold, the columns were swarmed with millions of moths, and just as I was going to take a hit, one would come and hit me in the head - disgusting. They're just everywhere.
This picture I found is a mild version of what's going on here...
This is just gross. They say they will be gone in a week...yeah right.
