Last night, I was okay, I was peacefully drawing. I went to the kitchen just to walk around like I sometimes do. I found this big moth flying around, I got scared, but I killed it with the bug spray. I thought everything was over.
I went to my other room to dust off something, then I noticed a bunch of medium-sized moths outside. The window was closed and I also have a bug screen, so I didn't worry a lot. Their presence made me cringe, though.
I got close to the window to grab something on the bed near it, when I saw this big moth trapped between the bug screen and the window. I got scared, surprised, trying to wonder how the heck it got there, but I thought "ok, it's trapped, it can't do anything", so I turned around to go to the kitchen to grab the bug spray. As I turned around, I saw another big a$$ moth INSIDE the room. I panicked and closed the door and left it there.
No one was around to help me, so I decided to grow a pair and go grab the spray to be done with it. I got into the room, trembling, sprayed the damn thing, but it didn't die. Then, after the second spray, it disappeared. I didn't see a corpse anywhere, so I started to get paranoid that it hid somewhere (because moths are damn good at hidding). I sprayed every corner of the room to make sure it wouldn't survive, then closed the door.
I would go check inside every 15 mins or so, to see if anything was flying around, but I saw nothing. After a while, I found the bastard in MY room. My room is small and I have pets living in here, I can't use bug spray, which is really inconvenient. After a 1 hour battle, using only a towel as my weapon, the thing landed on the floor and I stomped on it.
My mate was online in that moment, he was like "dude, it's just a moth", WHICH IS TRUE. I am prefectly aware that moths and other bugs can't harm me, but I can't help it.
Anyway, it was 5AM, after the "battle" I was left alert, wide awake, trembling, sweating, heart racing, looking around, paranoid that there were more moths. I am still a bit paranoid right now that night will come, they will start re-appearing and they will find a way to get in, even though, I've sealed every tiny aberture I found.
The story sounds stupid, but this is something that has plagued me my entire existance and it's tiring, because you can't really avoid bugs, they are every-f*cking-where.
Any of you go through the same or am I crazy?
