    Oh wow, you actually did it!! That’s so great to see :O I wish I had a blacklight, too. Would be great to attract some moths, too.

      They’re very inexpensive in the cat section of your nearby pet store, most likely. I think ours was maybe ten bucks.

      Either way, I am very happy to share and appreciate you prompting me to do this!
