Anybody else seen a lot of them recently?
Maybe the mild (although it is getting cooler now) weather
has them all going a bit mad.
Hundreds every night this week (near the hedgerows),when I am cycling home.

Yes.

And also inside the house. Some ate the living room carpet, and some others ate the arms in my two best suits! 🙁

I noticed clouds of albino midges a week or so back which I thought a bit strange.

Maybe the two incidents are related

Sounds like White Fly to me. Cabbages and the like round here are covered in 'em.

Devil Leopard Death Killer Fang moths.

There's been an influx of them from the far east. They start real small, but adult males are 300kg+ at maturation. Mainly eat carrion, livestock, Twix, that sort of thing.

Be careful out there.
