A can of deodorant. A lighter. Worked for me. Admittedly, it did take about ten minutes, and afterwards the room stank of Lynx. And there was a high risk factor. But, on the plus side, a singed moth.
I once successfully killed a moth by turning off the light. It had been buzzing around the bulb, and now, since it couldn’t see, it flew touched the bulb and got burnt. I’ve done repeat experiments, though, and didn’t have repeat results.
DY, excellent poem, and I think the moth was most upset.
Jewish thinker, it was definitely causing me tzaar.
Rebbyid, my husband said there was no moth inside when he picked up the burp cloth, so it probably wasn’t too badly hurt. Which makes sense because I didn’t crush it, I only wrapped it into a ball.
