I’ve deployed both #mothtraps this evening .. and I’m still feeling envious of those moth-ers who can launch an MV without their neighbours complaining! 🤣🤣🤣 #teammoth #mothsmatter

A couple of days with empty #mothtraps the only nice finding recently was this leafhopper (Cicadellidae) bug last Tuesday, possibly a Tremulicerus #mothsmatter #teammoths
