I agree. In fact, I've been doing fine in Alaska with a couple of 8 watt
UV black light bulbs, run off a couple of motorcycle batteries which I
can recharge in my truck as I drive. This is _not_ Arizona collecting--
one doesn't get sheets just covered with spectacular moths, even with a
powerful MV lamp. So I rely on traps...
