How can I attract luna moths to my back yard?

Question

should i try a florescent light? i live in the country

heeeellllooooo?

Answer 1

I used to have a cottage on a lake with a mercury vapor light on a pole near the dock. A couple of times a summer, I would spot a Luna moth flying around the light. They never seemed to stay around very long, fifteen minutes at most before moving along. These moths seem to be elusive creatures.

My guess is that since you live in the country, any light source you can provide will help attract them.

Good luck with your search for the Luna moth.

Answer 2
