Moths freak me out for some reason.
Maybe it's because the only time I encounter moths is when it's dark and I lie in my bed and hear bat sized wings flapping around in my room, dunno lol.

When I was a little faggot I always had open my windows, and fucking moths always entered in the room, I was fine with that but shit started getting crazy because fucking faggot where like 20 of them at the sme time, I still didn't do anything, but when I was sleeping fucking faggots strted to fly around my ear and those fucking noises of their wings when flying scared me a lot, also what scare me a lot are those kind of fucking moths that are black and huge (no homo)
>>681657017
because thats how moths roll
Moths are friends!
>>681657232
Like this one? :^)
>>681653960

>>681657397
Yes, moths are only in life to love
>>681657437
Yeah, like that fucking faggot right there
>>681657232
you're lucky one didn't burrow into your ear.
>>681653308
COOL FACT:
The lunar moth in your picture has those long tendrils on the bottom of its wings because the tendrils make a certain sound wave that confuses the bats that hunt them in the night, its screws up the bats ecolocation and they go for the tendrils instead of the moth itself.
the moth can then escape, the lunar moth has no mouth so it needs to find a female and mate within 48 hours before it starves to death.
>>681657545
its a black witch moth, and they love you unconditionally.
Love is non negotiable.
An elegant moth

>>681653475
They want you to notice them sempai!
Moths are cool as fuck. I had a pet moth at summer camp one year. Big, fuzzy, white dude. Lil nigga'd chill on my hand all day. Stuck around for like 4 days then just disappeared one night.
>>681655641
That's better than any gun
>>681659828
That specific one in your picture is made of glass.
>>681654516
I always loved these kinds of moths because it looks like they're wearing an expensive fur coat
>>681658922
That always brings up The Last of Us, what a game.
this thread makes me wanna fap to moths now
>>681657610
Interesting stuff anon, thanks

Yeah, heres is a leopard moth, looks almost like body armour!
>>681656406
I have insectophobia (normal house flies are enough to give me an anxiety attack) but for some reason I don't mind even the biggest of moths. Held one on my hand once.

This is the cutest moth i have :^)
>>681660486
>>681661645
This.
Is why I'm here
i fucking hate moths. they freak me out so much.
>>681657610
Plenty of silkmoths don't actually have functioning mouthparts.
I find most bugs cute but irl i get so freaked out by them
>>681660930
consider exposure therapy or educating yourself in your downtime. knowledge often dispels fear, moreso if you know exactly how harmless bugs are.
I have the weirdest boner right now
oh boy, nobody's brought up hairpencils yet?
coremata are pheromone emitting structures located internally within male moths, used to attract females and repel other males. they bust it out when it's time to mate (and since most moths don't live very long as adults, it's always time to mate!)
Last summer I raised some polyphemus moths from eggs! Here are a few that eclosed for me!
>>681662566
Here's a closeup of another I raised.

Not at all, especially if you can find a fertilized female on your own. The best way to do it is set up a blacklight outside.
Female moths have thinner, less feathery antennae. It's super easy to tell on the giant silkmoths if you can get one to your light.
Otherwise, eggs and even cocoons are pretty cheap to buy online. I used a guy named Bill Oehkle as my supplier when I bought a couple luna moth cocoons.
For food, just get leaves off of a tree outide. some species are picky with their foodplant, though. I've found most like maple.
This little fella flew into my room some time ago

slightly better pic
Fuck your colorful flying insects, mine is better
Moths are so cute.
>>681664227
We can coexist, or, you can die.
>>681664047
If you at the container in this picture (>>681662632) , I raised about a dozen caterpillars to adults in that. I got it for $1 at Goodwill. It's plastic, about 1 gallon volume, and has a lid.
For catching them, a butterfly net helps, but for the giant silkmoths, they move slowly, so just kinda pushing them into a brown paper sack was effective. Also, if you catch a female at a light, she's already mated. So if you keep her in the sac, she'll lay eggs that you can catch.
adult moths don't live long, so it might be around a week tops before it dies.
For those who really love moths:
https://hitomi.la/reader/732189.html
why the fuck you like these awful insects????
>>681664293

moth r gay
Bugs aren't really picky regarding containment, they just need a decent amount of space relative to their body size, particularly if they're a moulting species. And whatever they eat within their habitat.
I keep my stick insects in a tall wooden CD holder with the shelves removed and netting across the front.
>>681664828
KILL WITH FIRE
>>681664782
the caterpillars do, but it's dry. (think coffee grounds) So, it's easy to dump it out in the trash when you're changing the leaves. Also, you gotta change the leaves daily.
>>681664859

It makes good fertilizer so I guess if you grow stuff sprinkle it onto those when you clean them out.

This is why learned to stop fearing moths and love the raeps.
>>681665142
I got a bunch of eggs off ebay that I hatched out and grew. Sold all but a male/female pair after they grew a bit and now am collecting eggs to sell/hatch another generation.
I've also got some Australian Spiny, A. Fallax and Phobaeticus Magnus (These are hatching, but seem to have a high death rate at birth, went from about 10 to 2 now, but one made it through its first moult so hopefully I'll get a few), all of which I got off Ebay too either as eggs or babies.
This is in the UK btw, I recall that some Stick insects are permit only in the US for some reason so they might not be so readily available if you live there.

If only I could be so lucky

HOLY FUCK

Damn, yah I'm an American. That's a bummer. They're really neat bugs!
>>681660486
Every day we drift further from God's light
>>681664226
no, no moths have venom glands or a way to deliver a deliberate sting.
some are indeed poisonous - the caterpillars get their toxins from the plants they eat. but i wouldn't advocate trying to eat them.
omg i fucking hate bugs so much why do we need them wtf birds just eat the worms you dont need bugs too
>>681666039
We'd be pretty fucked without bugs tbh
>>681666039
>>681664667
get over your dumb social conditioning. insects do so much for us. freaking the fuck out whenever you see one is more than just juvenile, it's downright basic.

Does look like they're available on the US Ebay, usually shipped from UK:
http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p2050601.m570.l1311.R1.TR12.TRC2.A0.H0.Xstick+ins.TRS0&_nkw=stick+insect+eggs&_sacat=0
I'd message them though if you intend on buying them. Eggs are robust enough to be fine through postage, but it might be worth paying a bit extra for overseas.

Have a nice Lunar moth, anons. I've probably spelled it wrong but this is the only one I've ever seen.
>>681668415
Crickets, grasshoppers, Cockroaches, Stick/Leaf Insects and Mantids are all part of a bigger group of bugs.
They're basically categorized in the same family because unlike most bugs they're not born as larvae, but as a tiny version of their adult form that goes through various growth moults.
>>681657551
Please tell me this isnt real.
>>681668952
All moth contributions are appreciated!

You're referring to hemimetabolism, and you forgot the biggest group there, the hemipterans; true bugs.
Under ITIS we don't bother breaking down the infraclass Neoptera beyond the individual insect orders, they're different enough as is.
>>681669144
they don't have a reason to, but i guess anything small enough can crawl in there.
Silly moth the color goes on your wings not your body

cool lookin af
Let me play you the song of my people
>>681668415
>>681669015
crickets, grasshoppers, and wetas all belong to the same order: orthoptera
there's no sense categorizing the others into the same supergroup, they're all very different (although you may be surprised to find mantids and cockroaches share a close common ancestor)
Another colourful one! :^))

>>681657610
Moths are attracted to light because they normally navigate by moonlight. They use the moons light to guide them to the moon, where they mate and feed. The reason they go to the moon is because there is no oxygen there so there will be no predators there.

i fucked mothra in my Buster suit.
she'd come over sometimes while her boyfriend was away after school.
once the door would close she'd almost instantly get naked. most times she'd put on her favorite song and start sucking. then she would cry. her tears and makeup would drip down her face onto my dick. its surprising how cold tears are. eventually i finally asked her what was wrong. in between licks she told me that her favorite song was also her bfs favorite song. so even though she loved hearing it and it totally got her pussy wet, it also made her think about the fact that she was cheating on her boyfriend. i dont think i ever came harder down somebodies throat then right after she told me that. she was beautiful. we dont hang out anymore. wanna get lunch?

>>681666039
Dude bugs are super important to the ecosystem. They help breakdown the waste in nature whereafter funghi and stuff take over to break it down into molecules wich are than consumed by the plants and trees to complete the circle. If you'd said mosquitos than yeah fuck 'em annoying little shits ( they're probably important somehow too) but bugs in general are an important link in the chain of life.
Thanks for this thread OP....made me happy!
