Congrats! This spotting is being featured as our PN Fun Fact: I thought we might revisit some of our blogs for Moth Week. They have some helpful tips and advice that have not gone out of style. In this first blog, published in July 2012, you can learn more about Moth Week, the Moths of the World Mission, and tips on attracting moths. http://blog.projectnoah.org/post/27698173157/featured-mission-moths-of-the-world
