neato burrito posted:I spend time, money, and effort to plant milkweeds to support the local monarch butterfly population. Moths are even more important for pollination, it's just that they do it at night. If you see a plant that has narrow, white or yellowish-white flowers, it is probably pollinated by a moth.

I used to work in big drafty warehouses and moths just seemed to love to chill on me. People would point them out to me all the time. “Dude, you’ve got three moths on your shirt.” “Yeah, they’re not hurting anyone.” I like moths

Yeah since I've never had a butterfly invade my home I guess I'm on their team. Bugs need to stay the gently caress outside and know their place.

I know moths are the cool new kid in school but butterflies actually fight each other over our butterfly bush out back every summer which is hilarious and something moths never do as far as I'm aware

There was a gorgeous big green caterpillar on my mom's tomatoes this summer and we were both super bummed when suddenly some bird or other predator must have found him. She had a cute video giving him a little drink during a drought stretch

You wouldn't sing "come my layday, come, come my layday" to a MOTH. But in the end, isn't that a good thing? Think about it won't you?

Can't spell "mother" without "moth". Whereas you can't spell butterfly without "butter" which is why I suspect so many goons love them

Moths make too much noise at night, running into screens or just flapping about. Like get a job moths, while butterflies always seem to be on the job during working hours. Sure you see a butterfly lazing about now and then but it's hot out there.
