TIL my home is a thriving ecosystem
ecocide statistic is misleading, because they didn’t count roggebrood house which houses all moths in their greater area
Congratulations
I haven’t seen many moths lately at night around the light. Hmm…
As a guy with Mottephobia, good. As a guy whose planet depends on healthy ecosystems, fuck.
Mosquitoes are the only animal/ insect that I hate. I am fairly allergic to their bites so my skin burns and itches for days everywhere I am bit
I’d extend this to most parasites of humans, but mosquitoes will always hold a special place of hatred in the spite ventricle of my heart.

You are pretttttttay, prettttttay, pretttty clever. 😆
I’m just passing by this comment section, I’ll let the scientists make interpretations. Have a nice day!
GET 'EM, BOYS!

Tldr: They try to tilt/level their wings with light source thinking it’s sun. Hence they end up getting confused as the light isn’t coming from the sky and their flight path gets messed up trying to align with it.
i read “mom” and thought for a moment that there was a stereotype regarding mothers and slapping car roofs.
Yeah that was funny!
