Moth Night At Lorrimer Sanctuary

Join Lorrimer Sanctuary after dark for Moth Night, an engaging exploration into the fascinating world of moths! Discover the incredible diversity of moth species, which outnumber butterflies, and learn about their vital roles in our ecosystems. The evening will start with an informative session, followed by a hands-on capturing experience using smelly bait and light traps. This event takes place after National Moth Week, celebrated globally during the last full week of July to honor moth beauty, ecology, and habitats. Participants are encouraged to bring a flashlight and a plastic jar with a lid for catching moths. This all-ages program requires children to be accompanied by an adult. Tickets are $5. Don’t miss this unique opportunity to discover the nocturnal wonders of moths!
