Puss Moth

My Puss Moths have finally started hatching over the last week or so and yesterday I had my first female so I assembled her in the garden overnight. I went out to check at 12:30 and saw two males flying in, with one already in the light trap nearby. By 2am I had 5 males and no more by morning. I wonder from how far they are attracted and I severely doubt I would have had one to light without the lure of the female. Marc Botham, Didcot
