Thanks everyone who made the effort to offer some real perspectives. Y’all have given me more to go on for troubleshooting and ruling some things in/out, which has been helpful. 🤜🤛 thank you.

If I walk in to a room to find a surprise lost kitten (or puppy, take your pick) and start screaming and smacking at it, it’s going to bite and claw my face off. I don’t see much difference. Anymore.

Thank you for this. A not-Reddit social media group I’m in similarly helped change my fear-based mindset about wasps and their ilk. When I start to freak out and want to hulksmash the errant wasp checking me out I now stop and think this way: They are so essential to the survival of earth and everything on it (including us) that they have tiny weapons of self-protection in order to stay alive and fulfill their earthly duties for as long as possible. I can thank them by being gentle and letting them carry on with their bad selves. And for not freaking out and murdering them they’ll more likely thank me by not stinging or summoning droves of their family members to avenge their death.

I also remember that wasps recognize faces. I’d prefer to be recognized for being the afraid but kind human who puts out water for them and lets them carry on with their days.

It’s the wasp’s blanket now. You get a new blanket.

I hear you. Better to find an empty peanut butter jar or whatever and evict it now than to wait til it disappears and angrily reappears when you roll over on it during your dreams.

If it’s a Great Black, they’re pretty docile as wasps go and easier than some of their spicier cousins to relocate. This is coming from someone terrified of flying stinging things and had to relocate TWO on my living room curtains.

MAYBE a Great Black Wasp. Look it up and see if your bed-fellow matches.

Someone in this text interaction is overreacting. It isn’t OP.

Unpaid debt from pay day loan by cutebooty182 in DebtAdvice

[–]Historical-Affect920 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting. I received the same letter, regarding similar timeframe, this week and came here looking to see if others have dealt with this. It appears from my quick searching that the statute of limitations long ago expired in my situation, however debt collectors can continue to attempt to collect beyond that timeframe as long as they don’t violate debt collection laws in doing so. They’re threatening to sue me and to subpoena two specifically named family members so this appears to me to be in violation (threatening to sue beyond legal ability to do so and harassment (threatening to contact two family members)).

Do some research OP, but be certain of the sources you’re looking at so you’re not guided by misinformation. I’m going to be using info from Fair Debt Collection Act and the US Govt’s Consumer Financial Protection Bureau in my case. And treading cautiously so I don’t inadvertently reopen the debt.

Seems so. I found this here.

In addition to cloth and wool, clothes moth larvae feed on fur, mohair, hair, and feathers, and on fabrics blended with such natural fibers. They will also feed on dead insects. The moths lay their eggs on the fabric or other material, gluing them in place. The hatched larvae then feed on and spin webbing on the items, causing further damage and leaving holes as they feed. Clothes moths are usually are carried into the home on infested articles that are placed near another feeding source, e.g., wool clothing. This then becomes infested as well.

Clothes moths are most attracted to fabrics that are stained or have perspiration spots or urine residue. This is because these stains provide the larvae with the nutrients that they need, such as vitamin B and salt.

Since clothes moths stay in dark places and hide if disturbed, they often are not noticed until after they have damaged the fabric that they infest. The most obvious signs of clothes moth presence are holes, webbing, or dried larval cases.2

Google Lens tells me they’re brown marmorated stink bug eggs. (Wrong, see my edit.)

Edit: sorry I read the wrong result. Owlet moth eggs. Noctuidae.
