Excelent thread RAZD

Great info. Raz! A bit long, but worth the read. I'm sure randman will refute it with no problem however, shame, it probably took you a good while to write.

Bat's, no bats, same difference

Bat's may be a predator at NIGHT. That's when both bats and moths are active. During the day however, the moths rest. They need to conceal themselves from day predators. Namely birds.

The bats issue is thus rendered moot.
