I uploaded an error404.html doc hoping that the server would parse my php code per the settings in my .htaccess file. Unfortunately, 1and1 passed the php code to my browser. At least the empty parking option is off. Thanks for the tip. It’s fairly irksome that 1and1 puts up a spam page on my site as an “exclusive” service.

]]> Comment on Clothes moths attack! by Issy http://www.reviewmylife.co.uk/blog/2008/05/14/clothes-moths-attack/#comment-455 Issy Mon, 11 Aug 2008 14:05:28 +0000 http://www.reviewmylife.co.uk/blog/2008/05/14/clothes-moths-attack/#comment-455 I'm having a big problem with them too. I had them on my last flat, couldn't get rid of them...they were everywhere, since I had to move out I thought that at least this problem would be history.. how little did I know... because I must have brought them with me to the new flat because this spring they came back !!! I don't know where they came but this is really frustrating... I have looked everywhere, I have taken out everything a number of times and I haven't been able to find the source, I've never seen any eggs or any larvae, just the damn moths flying in the evening. At least on my old flat I found larvae but here absolutely nothing.. I've vacuumed everywhere, the wardrobe is full of lavender and cedar balls, I don't see any damage to the clothes. I'm using pheromone traps that I bought from ebay, they do catch the moths but only the males, but at least is something. I got desperate and I called a pest controller. I was ready to fork out £450 and he told me that there was no guarantee that he would be able to get rid of them, he was very honest, if I wanted to go ahead with the treatment he would do it but no guarantee. He said I should take my clothes to the dry cleaners and keep the clothes in sealed boxes. So I decided not to do the treatment, at least for now, and I will take some stuff to the dry cleaners . I don't know if I'll be able to get rid of this problem, it's really stressing me out. I’m having a big problem with them too.

It is a humbling experience that something so small could be so powerful. I'm not sure I've found the nest yet though. The infestation went quite a while before I noticed there was a problem in a back room. I had cracked pecans in a paper bag and they were in heaven with such a treat! :-( I threw away the pecans but still see them. They are so active at night. Why? In the day I tried to move them towards the daylight and they wouldn't budge and stayed on the walls and in the ceiling. They are trying to and have migrated to other rooms but just a few and I'm trying to keep it that way. How long has it taken anyone who has successfully dealt with the meal moths to eradicate the problem? The one sticky trap didn't attract as many as I thought and will try another. Even when I but the trap up near they seemed to not want to have anything to do with it. Please share those of you who have conquered the problem. Thanks!

Would be great to have some word count options in the settings. For instance no ad injection for less than 300 words, one for 300-600 words, two for 600-1200 …. thx.
