I used to think that moths spent the entire day flying towards the Sun, that's why they weren't seen in the day. Then at night, when the Sun went down, they flew back towards the Earth and that's why they were all gathered around people's security lights & stuff. To be honest I'm still not entirely convinced that that isn't actually the case. I'm 26 years old.
