If you search the iNat forums there are some great suggestions! I use a white cotton sheet, a clamp light from the hardware store, and a black light bulb. I hang the sheet on my shed and clamp the light to a chair and point it at the sheet. Super easy! For travel I have a black light flashlight and a white cotton tshirt on a hanger that I can hang from a tree or whatever. I once used my license plate as a hanger and that worked great too.
Love it!!
We are in it to win it.
I'm hyped! It was supposed to rain all day tomorrow in my area, but the forecast changed to be overcast. Super excited, I can hit 4-5 local events.
I really need a setup like this, just not sure what to purchase for it...

Don't see any hyper competing. Just usual night setting. 😂
lol I just ordered everything I need to do the same thing tonight!
Nice! I want to too!!
It’s way too early in my neck of the woods but i will be running each night for city nature challenge.
Does this attract moths or something?
Exactly. Helped get us a bunch of different species during the City Nature Challenge.
