    Did yuo know that some moths make a clicking sound? If you go into the gasrden after dark if you here clicking noises it will be moths I think it's to jam radar signals from bats and confuse them

    No, I didn't know that - I know very little about moths.... actually I know very little about anything, but I am learning! Mind you, If I hear a noise in my garden at night it's likely to be the police helicopter over the area
