Highlights of Live Mothing Events

 This activity was also filled with so much fun wherein Dr.Shubhalaxmi explained the technique of using light sheet method for mothing. The whole week she used to go live every night discovering the moths visiting the light sheet. She also showed the technique of using ripe banana and jaggery as a bait to attract moths. Not only she but along with her many participants who had taken part in this event had set up the light sheet at their location and did mothing.
