All members of this Family form part of the genus Argyresthia and all have larva that feed within a plants tissues. With bonnetella favouring Hawthorn, pruniella Cherry and spinosella Blackthorn (1). The Garden contains none of these plants so these species are not resident (as of June 2022), but there are plenty in the local area.
