Moths are not microwaveable
-
I just thought I'd share this startling scientific discovery with the rest of the world.
I was microwaving a pint of milk yesterday evening...full power for 3 minutes. Unknown to me, a large moth had decided to take a nap inside. The milk came out at near boiling point, the moth didn't look too pleased either...but otherwise was perfectly ok.It was still fine this morning. I guess it's because they contain so little moisture. Although, judging by the state of my windscreen at the moment, they've certainly got some.
My car also bears testimony to the fact that the pigeons belonging to the guy at the back of us also contain a degree of moisture. I think I'll try it on one of them next.

This only works for male moths which have evolved in cities. I have heard it said that a microwave will also not harm a city-bred female moth, but that's an urban myth!

Well I'm glad to hear you are not microwaving rats
[But if you do the pigeons, you will probably need to finish them
off under a grill.]
This is interesting though ..maybe they could survive a nukrear [GWB spelling] war. They might be the only thing left.....and one day evolve into....yes you guessed it.....Mothmen
