Moths are OK, as long as they don't dive-bomb me. I like bees (lots of them on my little lavender hedge just now) and can tolerate wasps until the apples are ripe and they get drunk on the windfalls. It's only daddy-long-legs, vile creatures, that put me in a panic.

We've got our annual invasion of corn-flies just now but not as many as in previous years. Last year they settled on my kitchen walls, which are pale green, like thousands of tiny specks of soot. All you can do is wipe them off with a damp cloth - they don't fly away.
