Provide food for moths

-

Moths might be butterflie­s’ less glamourous cousins but they’re no less important as pollinator­s. Grow night-scented plants such as honeysuckl­e, stocks and evening primrose to provide a food source for them. If you want to see which moths visit your garden, make a homemade moth trap using rope. Soak it in sugary red wine solution to lure them in and check on the trap throughout the evening.
