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. However, artificial lights can confuse them, leading them to circle around the light source instead of navigating away from it. This phenomenon is known as positive phototaxis.

What strategies did you use to hunt the moths?
To effectively hunt moths, I employed a combination of light traps and baited lures. I set up bright lights in dark areas to attract moths, as they are drawn to light sources at night. Additionally, using sugar water or fruit-based baits helped to lure them in closer. Lastly, I ensured to conduct my hunts during peak activity times, typically around dusk and dawn.
