I don't know. Everytime we have a butterfly at home, we either leave it leave, or leave it go burn itself on the lamp. Nothing better than the smell of a roasted insect

Bats are good to have around.

Spiff: moth and butterfly are not the same thing. Very similar, but moths are much bigger and live in colder climates. They also eat fibers and not nectar or pollen (they eat fur coats and clothing and such).

They show up in my cereal...

I believe it's actually larvae that eat clothing, not moths.

Get some cedar oil and some citronella oil. Try some lavender too. Victoria has quite a few varieties of moths, including the yummy delicious bogong moth...

'ABORIGINAL
The Bogong moths provided a rich food source for Australian Aborigines of the area. The moths would be hunted or collected by the male members as the moth lay at rest (aevistate) in the mountains The moths were prepared in various ways, cooked in sand and hot ashes to remove wings and legs or mashed and roasted into moth cakes Many huge Bogong Moth feasts occurred with members from various tribes getting together...'

http://home.mira.net/~areadman/bogong.htm

But luckily all the bird sized ones live in the tropical zones up north.

Good luck with the back to basics caveman lifestyle Boris. Or Vorsprung durch Technik, as we Eurocommies like to say, indulging in a little Schadenfreude....

The moths I have seen are smaller than some butterflies.

They're food moths. You generally can't get rid of them without getting rid of your dry foods -- cereals, flour, etc. They'll also get into your spice stores, and will powder dried hot peppers very quickly.

My advice is to get rid of the cereal and flour, and check your spices for webbing.
