Carol Dillin says the creature 'really frightening' A family has been left frightened by a mystery winged creature that bangs on their front door. Carol Dillin says it is "really frightening" when she hears a bang on her back door. In her efforts to work out what the creature terrorising her in her home in Oklahoma City is, Carol managed to capture a video. The home security video shows a creature she believes to be a bat, but experts don't seem able to agree "I thought somebody was hitting baseballs against the house," she added to News 4. "Then it started sounding like basketballs." While she attempts to discover what the creature could be, Carol has also taken steps to warn off the winged jester. A number of fake owls, bug bombs, spray and defensive barriers in the form of pillows and a cabinet have done little to deter the creature. Not even 'Harry,' the fake skeleton Carol set up outside her home, has been helpful. "He's supposed to be a scarecrow but nobody's afraid of him," Carol lamented. New outlet KFOR reported that Micah Holmes of the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation said the creature could be a large moth. "This is a good year for moths because it's been pretty wet, for the summer," Holmes said. "This is the time of year they're out and trying to mate." Luna, Sphinx and Polyphemus moths are all known to live in Oklahoma, along with the cecropia moth, the biggest in North America. The University of Florida said: "Adults are occasionally seen attracted to lights during spring and early summer, a common habit of many moths. It is unclear exactly why these insects visit lights, although a number of theories exist. "One such theory posits that artificial lights interfere with the moths' internal navigational equipment. Moths, and indeed many other night-flying insects, use light from the moon to find their way in the dark of nigh){kind=link}
