I would like to make a moth trap. I have just developed an interest and no nothing about it. I read about making home made traps. I can't seem to figure out why all or most traps are built with Mercury Vapour Lamps??? Then connected to a choke. Why is this? Why can't a normal 125w bulb be used connected to a circuit breaker? There must be a reason. Forgive the ignorance.
