Nature: practical activities - Moth trapping
Moth trapping is a fantastic way to measure changes in biodiversity on farms. Volunteer with us for moth trapping sessions in the North Pennines.
We’ll be working with (and testing out) new technology developed by the Centre for Ecology & Hydrology (CEH). We’re looking for citizen scientists to help us.
There are four opportunities which will run from 9am to 11.30am. The first session is on Wednesday 6 May. A short walk from the parking area to our moth traps will be required.
Other dates, 9am to 11.30am, to volunteer are:
- Tuesday 12 May
- Saturday 16 May
- Thursday 28 May
Please wear sturdy footwear and bring clothing suitable for all weathers. Suitable for adults and children (under 16s must be accompanied by an adult).
Tea & Coffee will be provided. If you have access requirements, please let us know in advance so we can try to accommodate them.
