* Played with in the [[https://another-piece-of-candy.thecomicseries.com/comics/25/ "moth hostage" arc]] in Creator/NomnomNami's comic ''another piece of candy''. When [[VideoGame/LonelyWolfTreat Moxie]] claims to have brought money to buy candy, she opens her wallet and a moth flies out of it... only the moth turns out to be [[VisualNovel/FirstKissAtASpookySoiree the moth princess Poffin]], whom Moxie kidnapped so she could trade her for candy. Unfortunately, the store does not accept payments in princesses, so Moxie is still broke.

For the most part, this is an [[AnimationTropes Animation Trope]], possibly because actors don't much like fragile flying insects in their pockets, though [[ForgottenTrope it isn't often used anymore]] even in cartoons. Little to no relation with MacabreMothMotif and MothMenace. Contrast BatScare, in which the startling appearance of flying creatures indicates a location is unexplored or abandoned. Compare other common poverty tropes such as the BindleStick, BankruptcyBarrel, and ShoppingCartOfHomelessness.
