MYSTERIOUS: Why are there so many moths around - You Need To See This

Bogong moths have returned to their annual migration.

I'm just going to say it: I don't like moths. It is the official position of Topics that moths - like flies and mosquitos - exist solely to keep Big Bug Spray in business, and they thoroughly creep me out.

I don't like their colour, their weird bodies that seem to be absent of all structural integrity, or the way they fly into the toilet bowl and then float there for eternity no matter how many times you try to bury them at sea. I don't like the way they bounce off the light shade, and how they leave that dusty stuff on the walls when you shoo them, or the way that they pile up in inconvenient places having apparently dashed their tiny brains out trying to fly directly into the light.
