Frequently asked
What's the difference between moths and butterflies?
Moths typically fly at night, have feathery antennae, and hold their wings horizontally when resting. Butterflies are day-active with club-shaped antennae and fold their wings vertically. Moths also tend to have duller colors for camouflage.
What do moths eat?
Adult moths primarily feed on nectar from flowers, tree sap, rotting fruit, and other sugary substances. Some species don't eat at all as adults! Moth caterpillars eat leaves, stems, roots, and some even feed on wool or other natural fibers.
Why are moths attracted to lights?
Moths use natural light sources like the moon for navigation. Artificial lights confuse their internal compass system, causing them to spiral around light sources in a behavior called positive phototaxis. This navigation error can trap them near lights.
