I am as well hopefully should get a few moths.You will soon get sick of seeing Large Yellow Underwings they are the commonest.And they are a right pain when it comes to sorting the moths out in the morning they never settle and they disturb all the other moths inside the trap.moth trap going out tonightin the back garden.
Pic is a Large Yellow Underwing a very common moth, pic 2 is a Sallow Kitten.first attempt with the moth trap.
