Lures

 I have had my LUN lure out for the last couple of weeks and caught nothing but flies. Then a couple of days ago I put out the lure for Tineola bisselliella and within 24 hours it had attracted a Lunar Hornet Clearwing. I decide  to put the LUN lure away and when I went to collect it found it had attracted this micro that looks like a candidate for Triaxomasia caprimulgella. The head is very yellow which does not show well in this image.(5mm in length).

  1. Hi Andy,
    That does look to be a good candidate for Triaxomasia caprimulgella but it would be worth getting it checked anyway.
