1 4 Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Last night some great big huge hairy insect flew straight into my chin while I was out on my bike. Looked and felt massive. Yikes that was scary. Hate insects. They should be banned, I say. Link to post Share on other sites

grungy-gonads 54 Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 This may well be a silly question but do many insects fly around at night in the dark? I know they like bright lights and stuff... Link to post Share on other sites
Tubby Beaver 209 Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 yes its a silly question There are a lot of insects at night, often mistaking bright lights for that of the moon, and flying right into them. Link to post Share on other sites
tokabochi 9 Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 Can they fly all the way to the moon then? Even man can't do that! Link to post Share on other sites
Tex 3 Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 I believe they just use the moon as a guide for a constant direction. Having an artificial moon messes with their minuscule brains like insect heroin or something Link to post Share on other sites

pie-eater 207 Posted July 24, 2011 Author Share Posted July 24, 2011 I wonder how noisy a human would be if they were as relatively noisy per size as one of these chhky critters? Perhaps even as loud as a Japanese variety game show? Link to post Share on other sites
