B...I can understand how the moths are beneficial...<br />But these are evil creatures! They can eat an entire plant in a couple days, ruin a tomato in minutes, they look like C'thulu larva, those horns might as well be the headgear of Satan, and the clicking noise is completely creepy. I hate them so much. The only thing more satisfying than watching their green juices drain out at the head of a wasp stinger is stomping on them myself--but they cling so hard to the plants, even just prying them off takes great difficulty. <br />With all that said, I legitimately chuckled at how the way they rock their heads up back and forth was described as "regal." It's absolutely terrifying.The Nicsperimenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08101227163387381013noreply@blogger.com
