Researching moths can indeed be a fascinating job. I learned in high school science that they are good pollinators. However, personally, I don't like moths much because they often create holes in our clothes.

ah yes, they are good pollinators, and often get forgotten about compared to Bee's etc
Regarding pests, while it is true that some moths can be a nuisance, it is worth remembering that it is only a few species. In the UK there are 2500 species of moth, and of those only 5 can be considered pests in the home (2 feed on natural fibres i.e. clothes, 3 other species feed on food sources such as grain and wheat)
