WHY MOTHS LOVE LIGHTS

If you’re up now, maybe in front of a screen, of some kind, or perhaps hanging around under a streetlight waiting for trade, of some kind, or possibly even clung to the front of a moving vehicle, of some kind, you may well be sharing your space with a moth.

Now, we all know they love light like we love New York, but we don’t know why. I’ve scoured the entire web (insert insect/arachnid gag here) and some fat and clever books and I’ve yet to hear a decent reason. When we finally find out, in a roundabout way we shall solve the human headaches of time zones, arson, colour blindness, war and infertility – just don’t ask me to draw you a diagram.
