Temperature and light effect on moth activity/numbers

In this article, we are investigating the effects of temperature and light on moth activity or numbers. If the moths like warmer temperatures, then there will be more moths in warmer temperatures than in colder temperatures. If moths like high light pollution than low light pollution, then there will be more numbers of moths in urban areas where there is a high light pollution. There is scientific proof that moths are mostly active in warmer temperatures and in medium light pollution. The study was conducted at the sites where we are currently, at home, in different provinces which are Free State, Gauteng and KwaZulu-Natal. We observed the number of moths that came to light in different temperatures and under different levels of light pollution in 3 time intervals. In this case, the results show that the hypotheses we were testing were not supported; meaning neither temperature nor light pollution affects the number of moths. This implies that we should find out more about what affects the activity/numbers of moths.
