TODAY'S FACT IS
Did you know that the Fall Webworm Moth (Hyphantria cunea) is a moth that wraps trees in webs? The caterpillars feed on the leaves of the host tree and travel from leaf to leaf on its silk. These caterpillars are quite voracious so they quickly enweb their host.
Native to North America (Canada through Mexico) the caterpillars hatch late in the summer and are active through the fall season, giving them their name.
The adult moth is a beautiful, fluffy, white moth with brown/grey speckles on its wings.
Their web nests are thermoregulated, helping the larvae stay warmer as the weather cools and develop quicker.

Fall Webworm Moth (Hyphantria cunea), larva, taken October 31, 2025, in Georgia, US
A small, fuzzy caterpillar perched on the end of a leaf, looking for a good spot to begin eating! This little guy was my last webworm caterpillar of the year. I believe I found more after this picture was taken, but none that I took the time to photograph due to the number I'd already seen. By now, all larvae are either pupae or adults and are safely overwintering in various sheltered spots including leaf litter and wood piles. Around late summer, these caterpillars will reappear as they disperse from their tent nurseries to find good foraging grounds away from the hungry mouths of their siblings!
As a fellow moth fan, I gotta ask 🙏 what should I do for my next cat moth?
(Was thinking the death hawk being a lil reaper but I'm always open to suggestions!)
Fall Webworm Mothcat would be amazing (I love the Fall Webworm Moth)
