It is because moths are drawn to virtually any source of light. Hence the reason why most of them get caught in bugzappers. Same reason mosquitoes are attracted to more people with brighter clothing. We all know that moths are drawn to virtually any source light; the question was WHY? I suspect that the REASON is because they are DIURNAL creatures, meaning daytime critters, versus nocturnal [night]. Therefore, in the dark or low light levels, they see light sources as where they want to be. Of course not being capable of cognition they fly to, and into a flame, thinking they are going into daylight. Not sure who claims moths are diurnal. Moths are nocturnal. At least according to Cecil Adams. Read his findings on this question here: http://www.straightdope.com/classics/a5_038.html
