Hi Chris,

The moth in number 4 looks a lot like a clothes moth to me… I can’t be 100% 
sure, but it looks like a webbing clothes moth.

I hope I’m wrong, or if I am right it is a sweater in a desk drawer and not the 
collections that are the source.

I've been finding two types of spider in multiple traps. One is on average 
about 15 mm and is reddish brown (001 and 002) the other is about 4 mm and 
translucent (003). Because I'm finding multiple examples of each I'm wondering 
what they are and do they indicate any particular issues with our storage. I 
also have 2 new specimens (to me) 004 is 1 cm in length and 005 is 4 mm across. 
Could 004 be a springtail?
