I'm not really getting anything in the trap at this time of year(except a bunch of caddisflies), do you have any particular plants around that might help attract more moths? When night hiking in the summer I've found a lot of moths on Tansy and that is still blooming, thinking of planting some.
@@JudgmentalShoelace it’s all about the habitat and what the larval foodplants are, if you have woodland nearby that’s great and you’d expect to get moths. For example, the merveille du jour moth feeds on oak as a caterpillar and so is most common in oak woodland or places with mature oak. At this time of year, late ivy flowers can also attract the adult moths that want to feed on nectar. Many autumnal species can be found on a night visit to some ivy. Hope this helps!
