So, yes, the clothes moths. They started out in the linen closet, but I put in moth balls and after a little while that seemed to have effect: it drove them out into the rest of the apartment. After a while we figured out that they'd established in the downstairs coat closet, so I moved the moth balls down there and I've put my best coats into suit bags in prep for taking them to be dry cleaned.

Fortunately the condo corp is already planning a sweep to do pest control, and they've agreed to come in and spray for moths without charging me anything. The bad news is that I have to move all my clothes out. So as things come back from dry cleaning, or I do laundry, I'm moving the clean stuff up to Anne's. By next week most, if not all, of my clothes will have moved. I expect I'll need to move the cat as well.

Very Unhappy.

Also, it's snowing. Again. This winter is the longest one ever. Grrrr.
