The very nature of CPs is evil from a bug's point of view.
But I'm not siding with the bugs, no way!

disappointing results from last night. The light I bought is very weak. I'm going to pick up an LED version that should fair much better..

Ok, so the sundews have their dew back, the new night light looks really nice and bright, so I'm leaving it out tonight. The only problem is that it's not yet a warm summer night. So not many insects will be out. I'll update in the morning.

And sometimes, at night, you can still hear them can't you? The moths...the screaming of the moths... :mrgreen:
