If you are not ready to hang up your moth trap for the year just yet, please do consider our winter scheme which runs through until March.

It's the final week of our 2025 summer scheme 💔

Please send your results to your local organiser after emptying your moth trap. Thanks to everyone who took part this year, your records are making a real impact on moth research.

It's the final week of Quarter 3 of the #GardenMothScheme. Please return your completed spreadsheet to your local organiser after adding your records for this week.

Here's hoping for some lovely full traps in the morning!

It's Fly Day Friday 🥳

Things are feeling rather autumnal in moth traps at this point of the year! What species do you consider a sign of the season changing?

We're halfway through the #GardenMothScheme summer period already 😱 Please send your spreadsheet to your local organiser after you fill in this week's totals.

If you fancy taking part in the scheme, next week is a great time to join in as a new quarter begins!

Week 15 of #GardenMothScheme and looks like it could get rather stormy for many of us tonight! Hope there aren't too many soggy egg boxes in the morning.
