Hang/place near your tortoise table and leave it on at night when all the lamps are off.
These are a great idea. My youngest has a terrible phobia of moths at the moment - might have to get one!

Glad its not just my dog then we have a bat and that's not a problem the only problem is is that we need four of them as every time a wasp or fly shows its face there is an argument to whose go it is to get it

Thanks for all your advice, as you can probably tell I don't get on here much! Anyway I expect you are right about which type of pest I have I'll change the substrate more often but as you say they aren't a problem to the torts my worries have been lessened as I personally don't find them annoying, I was just worried about my torts.
