moth conservation

Moth conservation involves protecting moth populations and their habitats to support biodiversity and ecosystem health. Moths play vital roles, such as pollinating plants and serving as food for many animals. Factors like habitat loss, pollution, climate change, and artificial lighting threaten moths worldwide. Conservation efforts include preserving natural habitats, reducing light pollution, planting native flora, and limiting pesticide use. These actions help maintain moth populations, which are essential for healthy ecosystems and biodiversity. Protecting moths benefits not just the insects themselves but also the plants, animals, and overall environmental balance.
