You’re invited to a “Moth Ball!”
July 29th
8:30pm-10:00pm
Meet at the Cedar Hat Classroom
FREE!
Please RSVP Here: https://dungenessrivercenter.app.neoncrm.com/nx/portal/neonevents/events?path=%2Fportal%2Fevents%2F48025
Children and adults will be able to observe moths in action on a summer night. We’ll whip up a yummy snack for the insects (nectar made from rotten bananas and brown sugar), smear the food on tree trunks to attract the moths, hang up a white backdrop (in this case, a sheet), illuminate it with a black light, wait for dark, and observe a number and variety of moths settling on the backdrop or on nectar-laden trees. Get up close and personal with these fascinating insects.
We’ll talk about the moth life cycle, the parts of a moth and how artificial light and pollution affect these little creatures.
Learn why moths matter. Embrace the presence of moths in your garden to enhance biodiversity, support pollination, and contribute to a healthy, balanced ecosystem.
This program is in partnership with DarkSky Olympic Peninsula – Protect the Night
