Latest from the garden trap

Not much happening at the moment with this dense and patchy fog and increased dampness, the moths don't see to be interested in venturing too far away from their homes ( i.e the trees!)
For November though the temperatures are brilliant with an average daytime temperature of 15 degrees but sometimes much cooler depending on if the fog clears in time for the sun to warm things up.
Towards the end of the week we might be looking at 18 or 19 degrees and 10-12 degrees at night, very pleasant indeed!
Nothing new in the trap but Spruce Carpet mixed it up a bit.
The catch was low and expected with all this damp cool air at night.
