    I learned something new today.

    1 tablespoon of ground nutmeg puts you to sleep,

    3 tablespoons gets you high,

    And 5+ tablespoons will kill you.


    Have fun OP!

    Agree OP, tis a pain trying to sleep in this heat and I can't even open a window because I'd be invaded by every moth in the place.

    Wish it could be hot during the day and cold during the night.

    5+ seems a pretty attractive option right now...

    Considered for evaluation.

    I've actually been spending quite a bit of time just standing on the bathroom floor to cool my feet. Pedestal fan doing 90 but still no joy.

    It doesn't seem to deter modern moths and midges.

    I got some cheap fly screen mesh from Aldi I think it was, and stapled it to a thin wooden frame the size of the opening part of the bedroom window, well.. about an inch or so bigger all round, and stuck some velcro dots on window frame and flyscreen frame. Now I open bedroom window wide, slap on the screen and go to sleep feeling the breeze on my co... face.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 320 ✭✭OMARS_COMING_


    What you do is open the window and let all the little flys and moths in,get as many as you can in the room.If you have a few thousand of them then what happens is they fly around the room flapping their wings and this causes the room to cool down by a few degrees.
