Mine have been very different since we moved, too. Mine are older, and had been in the old place all their lives, most of them.

Give your birds time to calm down from your scare. They probably reacted to your fear when you found the trap with the feather. That and yes, the spray. In the future, know, water won't get glue off a bird's feathers. You have to use mineral oil. I honestly don't think Max got in the trap. I've seen videos of that happening to wild birds, and they are usually covered in glue and stuck to the trap. The feather might be from molting, or he lost it flapping, he might have had a fright or bad dream, even.

I know you love your birds very much. Take a deep breath, and know you're doing very well with them.

Most moths that get in my house are attracted to light. If the birds are in their cages at night, leave their door cracked and turn a light on in the hall or another room that will attract the moths. Put the traps where the light is. BUt if the birds are loose, know that birds also fly towards light, so dont' put the traps out.

If you have a spare cage, put the glue traps in it, and put it in their room, and keep it's doors closed so the birds can't get in. The moths can get in, though, and that's what counts. Put it near a lamp. or light.
