Hmmm. I guess that answers the question. Leaving traps on private property or National Forest land is going to be safer than a random location. Knowing the area probably helps, going out into an unfamiliar area can be a surprise. Like hauling water in California's Trinity mountains at 3am...there sure are a lot of other people out here at the river.

The weather is becoming more spring like. My journey today to various Wildlife Management Area's (WMA) to set out Bait Traps was rather enjoyable. The sun was out and warm. Found several cocoons of Callosamia promeathea from last year. I did find some interesting habitat. Especially Prarie areas. Returned home about 6:30PM.

With the temperature in the 70's today, I saw my first butterfly for 2021. Pieris rapae.
I journeyed out to the Mantua wetlands to check my Bait Traps. I also collected my first butterfly with a net for 2021. Celastrina ladon (Spring Azure) were on the wing. Saw four, managed to collect two.
Tomorrow I will travel south towards Coshocton, Ohio. There are a couple of large Wildlife Management Areas to the South West of Coshocton. I will take a couple of Light Traps, Bait Traps and even some Pheromone Traps for Sesiidae.
Speaking of Sessidea Traps and Pheromone's. I am attempting to become a dealer through Leptraps LLC. Especially for Luers. I should know something by this week or next.
