Anyone ever see a white fly? Picture proof

After I was released from the hospital from a ruptured brain aneurysm, my father got these fly traps and put them on my porch. One day a huge white fly came by and just sat in the position until I took down the fly traps. I have never in my life seen a white fly. I'm curious was it an angel fly telling me to stop hurting her flies, or some other sign? Anyways, I thought it was kind of cool to even come across the fly. After I took down the fly traps I haven't seen the fly come back. Very beautiful though.

Jeff Goldblum was The Fly and he was white.

That's a satin moth

Why would a satin moth be on the porch in the middle of the day? Don't moths come out at night? What would attract the moth? Thanks, I was wondering what it was.

Aleyrodidae is her name. You may call her white fly.

The moth appears in June, July and August. The males begin to fly before dusk.

We have numerous sizes and shapes of white moths that fly in the day here. From really big to tiny ones that are often in the house.

The moth underwent an identity crisis, he, now goes by she.

HAHA too funny.

It does look like a fly, but any chance it could be a moth of some sort? Nice color, either way.

Exactly, what kind of bigot calls this a fly. It was in a fly trap, clearly self identifies as a fly and they can't handle it.
