Discover the Moths That Come After Dark

The Lamplight Log is more than a blank notebook for writing down moth sightings. It is a purpose-built moth-trapping logbook for Britain & Ireland, designed to help you record, understand, and build a lasting personal record of your nights in the field.

With 312 dedicated trapping nights and 56 species entries per night, there is room to build a substantial record of your catches while tracking the details that make your observations genuinely useful: trap type, lamp and wattage, running times, location, grid reference, temperature, cloud, wind, moon, rain, species counts, and new records.

But this book goes far beyond the log pages.

A Practical Reference Compendium

Before you reach the main trap log, you’ll find a carefully structured reference section covering the practical side of moth trapping—from trap and lamp types, choosing the right conditions, safe setup, emptying and releasing moths, wing anatomy and family identification, difficult species and aggregates, and alternative methods such as sugaring, wine ropes, pheromone lures and torching.

You’ll also find guidance on the moth year, immigrant species, larval foodplants, recording and submitting observations, conservation and the law, plus a useful moth-trapping glossary.

Built for Serious Records

The layout is deliberately structured around one page per trapping night, giving you a consistent format from your first session through your 312th. The book encourages proper recording rather than simply ticking boxes: count individuals, record the conditions, distinguish aggregates honestly, and preserve the information that can make your observations valuable beyond your own collection.

And that’s what makes The Lamplight Log different.

This isn’t a generic journal with empty pages repurposed for moths. Every section has been created around the real experience of running a trap and recording what comes to it.

Whether you’re setting your first garden trap or already building years of moth records, The Lamplight Log gives you one place to document the nights, the species, the numbers, the weather, the surprises—and the discoveries.

Set the trap. Turn on the light. Open the log.

Then discover what arrives when the world goes dark.
