While we were up in Kent, drooling over the Rosy Underwing, we saw an actinic type trap in use at the house of the person who had the moth. On closer inspection, we discovered that it was using an energy-saving bulb. This is a 25 Watt standard screw-fit bulb, requiring no choke. According to the person using it, all her best moths had been in that trap. As she buys the bulbs wholesale, I was very quickly in possession of one and will report soon on how it does.

The "blue" green future of mothing?
