Does anybody have experience with using a moth sheet and UV lights to attract moths, or other insects, in say, Yukon in June? I’m guessing it doesn’t work because it never gets dark enough. Has anybody tried it, or know of anyone who has?
I suspect you are right. These papers might possibly have useful information:
