This Thread Is About A Replacement For Old Balls Help?

Posted by: Gale 401 on 15 July 2012

With all this wet weather this summer ,There seems to be more moths about than ever before.

Do any of you on here have any tips on how to get shot of them? Is there anything that one can hang near a light that they will stick too?

I have never had a problem before this year.

Thanks.

Stu.

Why would you want to get rid of moths?

Wrong thread but this might cheer you up.

 

A man and a woman meet at bar one day and are getting along really well. They decide to go back to the woman's house where they engage in passionate love making.
The woman suddenly cocks her ear and says, "quick my husband just got home, go hide in the bathroom!" So the man runs into the bathroom.
Her husband comes up into the bedroom and looks at her. "Why are you naked?" he asks.
Well, I heard you pull up outside, so I thought I would come up here and get ready to recieve you."
"Okay." the man replies "I'll go get ready."
He goes into the bathroom before his wife can stop him and sees a naked man standing there clapping his hands.
"Who the **** are you?" the man asks
"I am from the exterminator company, your wife called me in to get rid of the moths you are having problems with."
The husband exclaims, "But you are naked!"
The man then looks down and jumps back in surprise.
"Those little bastards!"

 

 

PS. I find that moving to a hot country does help.

Because i have loads of the buggers flying about.

Stu, try lavender.  Moths hate it.  This year has been terrible for moths.  I have found two suits have been munched so far...

Last two days were fabulous but today the cloud has set in.  Sunday is not looking so good, but you never know here.  It's a micro climate so anything goes. Just so long as the wind doesn't get up and we can reach the pots then there will be crabs aplenty.

Richard,

It seems to be working.

I have had bunches on all windows and patio doors since the 21st and have not seen one moth.

Rooms smell nice also.

Thanks for that tip.

Stu.
