Well Rats!

[so lucky]

My DH called my attention to a moth at the back patio door this evening. Huge green moth. I think it must have been a Luna moth, but it was flitting around so fast we couldn't get a good look at it. I thought "Well, I'll just let it inside." I opened the door and it flew in, banged around on the ceiling for a few seconds, then made a dash for the piano. Went down behind it, apparently underneath it. Never to be seen again. I never did get a good look at it! Now it will probably die under there. (Piano way too heavy to move for a moth, even if it is a Luna)

Maybe it will go pedestrian and walk out.

We have rodent problems here. I read your title and wondered how rats had gotten into your well.....

Oops! So much for that idea! Luna moths are super cool...

Well, it did go pedestrian and walked out, and proceeded to crash around the kitchen till I caught it in one of the grandkids' butterfly nets and set it free outside. It was still on the patio door frame this morning. I have been trying to get the pics to post and I keep getting an error on my photo gallery. Grr!

Good! Glad you were able to get it outside! Would love to see a pic, if you can...

I saw a Luna Moth once that was the BIGGEST moth I have ever seen and so pretty.

Luna moths are beautiful. Glad you got it back outside!
