As a result this morning I waited too long before checking the trap in an attempt to allow any wasps to escape, but many moths also escaped by then. I might be able to trap in the front garden but this presents a logistical problem. Anyhow the list is as follows:</p><p><b>Jersey Tiger </b>5</p><p><b>Shuttle-shaped Dart</b> 2</p><p><b>Lesser Broad-bordered Yellow Underwing </b>1</p><p><b>Large Yellow Underwing</b> 3</p><p><b>Willow Beauty </b>1</p><p><b>Marbled Green</b> 2</p><p><b>Marbled Beauty</b> 1</p><p><b>Common Carpet </b>2</p><p><b>Straw Dot </b>1</p><p><b>Grey/Dark Dagger </b>1</p><p><b>Flame Shoulder </b>1 </p><p><b>Ash Bud Moth</b> (?) 1</p><p><b><i>Tachystola acroxantha</i></b> 1</p><p><b>Ermine</b> sp. 1</p><p><b>Apple Leaf Miner</b> 1</p><p>Also a few <b>Harlequin Ladybirds</b> and <b>Birch Shieldbugs</b> in the trap.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both;
