What is the light moths attract to?

Moths are primarily attracted to ultraviolet (UV) light, which is emitted by many artificial light sources, such as streetlights and porch lamps. This attraction is thought to be a navigational mechanism; moths use natural light sources, like the moon, for orientation.
