This bug got in our house the other day and we've never seen one before. I think it's some type of moth but I couldn't find it's pic in any research I did of Florida Moths. So, I thought maybe someone here would know. It's interesting, that's for sure.

:eek: omg, that's such a cool bug! Even though I hate all bugs:p

He's pretty big though, the first thing that came to mind was a manta ray:rolleyes: lol

I have no idea what that is.

We have those around here too. They are odd looking moths. Have you seen one at night time catch thier eyes with a flashlight and their eyes are carzy looking. :eek: :eek:

I never seen them around before till about 2 years ago, must be some new cross breed or something. First time I saw one it creeped me out a little...not your everyday moth.
