My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Moth caterpillar ID

12 years ago

HI, Hope someone can help. Some children at a daycare found this caterpillar crawling around. I'm assuming it was looking for a place to pupate, though not sure if it's too early.

I looked through the David Wagner, and it looks like something either in the Clostera, or Aronicta. Sort of like a Datana too though those don't look like they have knobs.

Thanks for any help--have to figure out what to feed it. Have oak and willow in there now.
