I live in a ground floor flat in inner London and have had quite a few species of moth just found sitting on the overhang outside the front door. I was wondering about running a small trap just to see if I can pull in a few more species. I was thinking of a proper blacklight to minimise glare for the neighbours. My main worry would be someone nicking the battery. Would it be worth the effort?

Can you keep the battery inside the flat and run the cables out the window?

Worth a try, you might be surprised  Although I have a bit of greenery around my estate there's also a lot of streetlight, yet I've now had over 300 species to the garden. Nige |
