Decided that because this warm weather is not likely to last that i'd run 3 traps at my parents house in Braughing, just over the border and into Hertfordshire.
Again a clear sky was forecast and it was abit chilly, but with temperatures reaching 28c daytime, it took quite a while after sunset to cool down.
I trapped from 9.45pm until 12.30pm and the catch included 3 first's for me, the best a single Sandy Carpet, backed up by the Micro's Cochylis atricapitana & Thistle Ermine Myelois circumvoluta.
