Insect Blacklighting Nights in Ripton

Past event
Aug 4, 2023, 8:30 to 10 PM

Please come join us for two evenings of bugs after the sun goes down and stay as long as you'd like! We'll attract the night-active insects to a white sheet in the woods, and you can learn about some of our local insects from Middlebury College Entomologist Greg Pask. Feel free to bring a flashlight or headlamp, and no bug spray please (we're trying to attract the bugs!).

Events may be cancelled due to inclement weather conditions. But light to moderate rain is OK!

Hosted by the Ripton Conservation Commission
