What is a "webworm moth"?
A webworm moth is an insect belonging to the family Erebidae, characterized by its distinct web-building behavior during the larval stage. The moth has a wingspan of approximately 35 to 45 mm and displays a combination of white, brown, and black patterns. The larvae of the webworm moth are commonly referred to as webworms or fall webworms, and they construct large silken webs on the branches of trees, enclosing foliage within. Within these protective webs, the larvae feed on leaves, potentially causing defoliation in localized areas.
