Pempelia genistellaA vioilent storm at 2am had me out of bed and protecting my traps.Black lihgt are very vulnerable to getting wet and are expensive enoguh for me to relish a cold shower while I protected them. The MV was moved under a garden table and the actinic carried on regardeless.
Although the two Black lihgt traps were closed down at 2.am they both still had quite a few moths in when I emptied them in the morning.
