It cost me less than £30 but I had lots of bits already so only needed to buy the box, funnel and UV light strip. I guess the USB battery power pack is the most expensive bit although they are only £20.

🎶🦋 Amazing to see Moth x Human live in London for #NewMusicBiennial, with stunning visuals by Northern School of Art students.

As well as the brilliant music, composer @elliewilsonuk.bsky.social & UKCEH’s Dr Jenna Lawson spoke on how moths & biodiversity loss inspired the piece.
