The 2 photos below are not the best in the world, but hopefully the red band on each forewing and the yellow legs are clearly visible.

Yellow-legged Clearwing
I have tried some pheromone traps in my garden on a few occasions this summer, without success. I therefore tried again yesterday afternoon with fairly low expectations of catching anything, but much to my surprise a Yellow-legged Clearwing was lured to my VES trap.

Hello Steve, well done. Your results are typical of most of us who have tried using pheromones - lots of attempts then a rare success story!
