They are usually pretty easy to catch by hand and simply toss them out.

My cat has a field day with any flying insect. And he is so sweet. After he plays with them and ends their flying days, he brings them to me as a "gift". Seriously, fly swatter works well. If they are too high, I spray with water. They usually fall, and I just snap them up and handle it that way.

Light the coleman lantern and stick it in the camper for a few hours one night. They can't resist mine when I have it at the campsite so should work for you.

I hear they don't like Budweiser moths. Maybe get some of them. Or maybe an electric bug zapper.

Tonight when dark turn off all lights inside. Open the door and place a strong light outside the doorway.
Even if you are on the right track, you'll get run over if you just sit there.

I agree! Kind of a fun sport, but some people get upset with us having so much fun. Its a cross between badminton and tennis, but easier to keep score. ;-)
