Where can I find them?

But we don't actually have to trap them - they are all around us. At dusk, just as the evening light is fading, they can sometimes be seen. In day time some moths (over 150 of them, such as the Cinnabar and Scarlet Tiger), can be seen as they are day-flying moths. As you walk through long grass or push your way through bushes, you may well disturb a moth or two. Fence posts, tree-trunks, walls and even plastic water butts can be used as a day-time perch by the occasional moth.
