Fireflies with Lexington Wild Ones Chapter

On July 7, I will be the guest speaker at the regular monthly meeting of the Lexington Wild Ones Chapter. We’ll be talking about firefly diversity and ways to attract them. I am really looking forward to this presentation because fireflies or lightning bugs are some of my favorite insects.

Firefly Diversity and Attracting Fireflies to Your Property

We often think of fireflies or lightning bugs as if there was only one species, but there are actually many, many different species. In this talk, we’ll discuss some of the different types of fireflies we can find here in Kentucky, ways to identify them, and ways to make your property more attractive to fireflies.
