Moth Trapping in Haslemere, with Surrey’s Wilder Communities

COPSE teamed-up with Surrey Wildlife Trust Wilder Communities Team, Haslemere Natural History Society and Transition Haslemere, to conduct a moth trapping night in Haslemere Town, with four traps set around town. About 43 species (27 macro's and 16 micro's) were recorded at the Museum Garden, 64 species in total from two traps on Collards Lane Allotment (34 and 46 species respectively) and about 25 moths recorded by Surrey Wildlife Trust who organised a moth training session in Swan Barn Orchard as part of the event. Two of the traps were hired from the fantastic Godalming and Guildford ‘Library of Things'.
