Moths do not have ears on their wings. They might pick up sonic vibrations with their wings but that really isn't an ear (or is it?).

By picking up sonic vibrations with their wings, surely moths act as eardrums. Without the ability to channel and detect different noises, they surely cannot 'hear'.

To confirm this, I just talked to a moth and it didn't reply.
